Real Estate RoundUp: A Storybook Cottage and More

Real Estate roundup. Here are 3 homes that caught my attention this week or sent to me by fans.

Real Estate Roundup #1.

A storybook cottage in a place I would not expect, Minneapolis, MN. Castles in the air come true. It looks just like an idyllic Thomas Kinkade paradise home.

Whimsical rounded cedar shingle roof. As wonderful to see from the front as the back. Just two bedrooms and circa 1921. This dreamy home comes to us from Great Homes and Destinations on NYTimes where you can see more interior photos of the cottage along with other homes featured as “Homes for $750,000”, which is exactly the price of this house.

Looking out the second floor office window above the garage onto the rear of this fantastical home.

Real Estate Roundup #2.

Adore and clapping for this fun red houseboat featured on BDN Maine Living. It’s “docked at the Front Street Shipyard in Belfast, Maine. I don’t find any information leading me to believe it is for sale. The owner is Steve White who recycled this tiny house out of an empty shipping container. The interior is done as well as any house or better. Thank you Cris Rogers Haskell for telling me about this houseboat.

Real Estate Roundup #3.

Pricey Pads featured this Lake Michigan castle-like home in Winnetka, Illinois that is yes, pricey at $6,995,000. I shared it on my Facebook Page this week. I hope you’ll like my page where I share more homes and other inspiration. Winnetka is an expensive suburb of Chicago. The listing says this magnificent home is “one of the North Shore’s most prized home.” Anyone can see why. Head over to Pricey Pad for the full tour including a delightful purple and yellow bathroom. But I wanted to show you the marvelous blue bedroom!
