Stone Cottage Architecture...
Downright Irresistible!

The nostalgic charm and ambiance of cottage architecture is hard to beat. When crafted with stone, it can be nearly impossible to resist -- as if conjured up from the pages of a fairy tale!

Welcome to the magical world of
stone cottage designs!     Hansel
and Gretal,  themselves, never laid eyes on such a romantic and pictur-
esque   collection  of  architectural
"eye candy!"

Quaint stone cottage designs take
on many forms  --  many of which
are inspired by the picturesque ar-
chitecture   of  the  Cotswolds,  a
range  of  hills  in west-central En-
gland ("Dr. Doolittle" territory).The images at right and below are clas-
sic  examples  of English Cotswold architecture.

Moving westward "across the pond" to the United States,  the river stone and fieldstone cottages pictured below simply ooze nostalgic charm!

Not to be outdone in the  "charm department"  is the romantic old mill  pic-
tured below.     Just waiting to be renovated,  such structures are perfect candidates for adaptive reuse as residences and weekend retreats!

If "storybook style" cottage architec-
ture is what you're looking for, few, if any places in the U.S. boast as many fine  examples  as  Carmel,  California. Pictured at right and below, left,  are just two such examples.

The cottage pictured below, right,  is located  in  Canada  and  employs the
dry stone technique,  a  building meth-
od  by  which structures are construc-
ted from stones without any mortar to bind them together.

And  for the ultimate in romantic charm and  ambiance,   the  cottage  designs pictured at right and below are hard to beat! Note the creativity and attention to detail in the close-up images below.
