I took a little drive the other day to drop off a few Christmas gifts to friends. I grabbed my camera and wanted to snap a few pictures of the gorgeous New England style homes that catch my eye every time I drive around my neck of the woods in Connecticut. When we first moved here I had the kindest girl offer to drive me around the area and show me her favorite spots and why she loves Connecticut. It was so fun, I learned a lot and also appreciated our new town so much more. I hope to pay it forward one day.
I accidentally drove down this road that was a dead end. These amazing Christmas wreaths were hanging on this gate. I loved that they hung them even though not many people drive down this road but family and friends or curious/lost drivers like myself.
This is another thing I love about Connecticut and back East, that this huge Estate was right next door to this one…
Isn’t it so charming? No houses are alike in New England. I personally am drawn to the white homes.
This catholic church is in the neighborhood of these homes. I heard the bells chime as I got out of the car to take pictures. This church was built in 1725. Water was up to the middle of the doors after Hurricane Sandy, they had to repaint it.
This home is on the Historical registry, it was built in 1776. If a home is on the historical registry as a private property the owner can make changes to it as they wish, they can also apply for a tax credit. It is right across from the water.
Some of the homes are Sears homes, that were purchased from the Sears catalog dating back to 1920. They are all so charming and quaint. Can you imagine picking out a house from a catalog and having the supplies show up?
I am absolutely in love with these arched doors. If I build again, it will have an arched door.
I also love how the shutters on these old homes are actually functioning shutters. Very practical for living close to the beach if you ask me.
I had been wanting to take pictures of my girls at this home we ride past on our bikes when we go to the Library. It is on the Historical registry too.
Thanks for taking a tour around where we live in New England. With all these historical homes I never get tired of going for a drive or finding new places to run. I am looking for inspiration, we are going to be updating the front of our home this coming Spring and I can’t wait!
You live in heaven!! Gorgeous homes!!
Thanks for sharing! I’m in Connecticut as well and definitely appreciate the history we are surrounded by. We have such beautiful buildings here. I don’t recognize any of these homes, so must be a town I’m not familiar with. : )
I live in CT too – Fairfield and I am trying to convince my husband it is time to leave. I was born and raised here but now that we are both retired I feel it is too expensive to stay. It is a beautiful State but not good for retirees.
I am in Fairfield too! It is very expensive, we came from Utah and there is a bog difference!
So beautiful. I love these old homes. They have so much character. I’m partial to the white ones too. Love the beautiful wreaths and Christmas greenery they put up.Thanks for showing these.
Beautiful! I love your little models too! But mostly I can’t wait to see what you do too your home! Creating curb appeal is my favorite thing to do when we move to a new (old) home!
Merry Christmas Brooke!

Oh I might need your help! I LOVE your homes exterior! xo
I love New England and colonial homes too, especially at Christmas. We used to live in Newport, Rhode Island, and I cherish our time there. We were there with the Navy, and the only thing wrong with that assignment was that it was too short.
There is so much to see and do, we are enjoying it here. We might only be here for a short time too, so we have to eat it all up while we can. Thanks for the comment!

盛り上がりを見せた2014年後半と全く異なり、チャイナショックを迎える2015年はほとんどたいしたものは購入していないため、乞うご期待とはならない可能性が極めて大きいと感じる次第なのである。 10mで1dB以上(3dB:1/2)の減衰を考えたら、お勧めの周辺機器のひとつです? Windows 10ではLAN運用が最低限必要、効果的な設備の充実が大切?!。

文書作成のためには、もはや、オフラインのWord、LibreOfficeのWriterに代えて、Googleドキュメントを使えばいい。 と、思っていたところに、タブレットだけどWindows搭載のAser Aspire Switch 10 E SW3-013-N12D/WFが登場しました。
Acrobat 11 知らなかったけど、だいぶ前に不具合がメーカーサイトでUPされてました。 子供には子供の時にしか学べない何かがあると思うので、ある程度は本人の自由にやらせてもいいはず。
