"I like for my house to be comfortable and fun for my family and friends," she says. But for the Jaakkolas and their two daughters, outdoor assets were only half the attraction. For Jaakkola, these imperfections were badges to be embraced. So the avid preservationist set out to restore and renovate the home to honor its past while still creating a fresh and functional space for her modern-day family. The result is a laid-back Lowcountry retreat dripping with character. On the inside, one-of-a-kind local artwork mixes with eclectic antiques and natural wonders.

I love the smell of the air when i get off the plane…so rich and humid! These homes are breathtaking, especially the pretty little turquoise one. The home's ample yard space allowed the family to enjoy the rural benefit of living off the land. Raised-bed vegetable gardens maintained by Jaakkola and her two daughters supply the family's kitchen with everything from Meyer lemons to lettuce and sweet potatoes. An upstairs bedroom strayed from the home's primarily subdued palette with neon accents and wood floors painted Benjamin Moore's Arctic Blue.

This lot is perfect for a home site and has a supporting geotechnical report for construction purposes. Within Isle of Hope’s Historic District , many of the houses date from its resort period, with larger historic properties on the riverfront Bluff Drive and smaller cottages on inland lots. Two historic frame churches date from the 1870s, and a few houses are older still, believed to have been constructed in the early 19th century. What an amazing location with the view of the river and marina. We visited Tybee and I kept thinking about the wonderful cottages that you had designed so beautifully.
To me that is the most beautiful place ever. Off the kitchen is a keeping room that serves as the default cocktail lounge when guests come over and is an example of Jaakkola's knack for combining styles, textures, and materials effortlessly. "I love really modern elements and very old things with patina, and I think when you put them together in a room, they capture your interest even more," she says. Here, industrial metal end tables are juxtaposed with delicate glass lamps and a casual slipcovered settee. The rugged wood-topped cocktail table and botanical artwork (both scored at Atlanta's South of Market) connect the whole setup to the outdoors.

I'll definately be back for part 2!!. Recently, I visited Wormsloe featuring the unbelievably beautiful mile-long avenue of Live Oaks. During that trip to Wormsloe, I stumbled across a lovely community located along the Skidaway River called Isle of Hope. We venture to Hilton Head and Savannah every summer from California.
There are moths, but not spiders so I'm hoping there is something to this old wives tale. Matter of fact, I love all your post. The homes you share with us today are just amazing, can't wait for tomorrow. I could feel passion and love coming thru these pictures and touched my entire being. What wonderful photos of gorgeous homes. I love American homes, so thanks for sharing the piccies.

To up the curb appeal even more, she swapped Victorian-style railings for simpler white ones and painted the front door powder blue —a nod to the home's setting on the water. "Our goal was to keep everything as close to original as possible," she says. Come see this Darling 3/2 home with enclosed den added for great family space or sun room.

It’s been about a year or so I think since I first saw that listing and I don’t think there were as many pictures back then. This would be a good one to post a tour of on the blog. Looks like a great place to go exploring. I can't wait to see Part II of your post.
This year, St. John the Evangelist Church is celebrating 200 years of Anglican services in the Port Hope Area. The first services were held in a wooden building in Cobourg. In 1822, services in Port Hope began at St. John’s Church on King Street, in a frame church building. In 1869, the Church constructed a new building on Pine Street.
The table is set with elegant china, crystal and silver and hundreds of twinkling votives. Soft breezes from the Skidaway River gently rustle the Spanish moss hanging from the Live Oaks overhead. Music fills the air and you are surrounded by friends. It’s a wonderful night…here out on the lawn. With a rich history that extends all the way down to its furniture and accessories, this is a home with more than a few stories to tell.
Currently set up as a duplex, could be a single family home; or live in one side and rent the other side. UNIT A is UNDER CONSTRUCTION; Seller is in the process of working on some wonderful renovations. UNIT B is ready for a tenant or new owner.
The picturesque setting of Isle of Hope has been well preserved by film’s time capsule for over 60 years. From Bluff Drive’s sun-dappled view of the Skidaway river, to the historic homes that charm the riverside community, it’s impossible to deny Isle of Hope’s cinematic appeal. This two-storey frame vernacular cottage was built with its gable facing the street. This, like the cottage at 25 Brown Street , exhibits the character of cottages of this period in history, which aspired to a classical style temple. This is further developed with a wrap-around porch with classical details in the columns with capitals. A metal roof adds much to the charm of this ground level porch.

Outdoors, they kick back in patio chairs hand-hewn from an ancient live oak that was on the property. The house is a symmetrical plan with a central entrance. Originally, the front hall was flanked with parlours, but since renovation, one side is a large open kitchen and living area. Large 6 over 6 windows light the space and lead to the south where French doors lead to a deck overlooking the ravine to the south.
By the pic, it looked like a small-ish cottage style, just my size. Umm, yea, it’s a deceptive view, as seen in the “it’s for sale” photo collection. I've never posted before, but wanted to share, I painted the ceiling on my front porch this summer Haint Blue. We've have spiders build huge webs summer after summer and so far, there are no spiders on my porch.
