Houses


Bighorn Lodge

This house is just amazing, I have never seen a lodge estate that takes it’s theme so seriously! One of the finest scenic estates east of the Rocky Mountains comes this 10,000-square-foot mountain retreat known as the ‘Bighorn Lodge’.

The Jackson Hole, Wyoming property was previously listed for $16 million and will sell to the highest bidder at or above $5.995 million.

An outdoorsman’s dream home, the property is set on an unobstructed five-acre lot, with the Grand Teton National Park acting as a visually-stunning 270-degree backdrop. Imported Western Cedar logs from British Columbia were used in the construction of the lodge, while the interior of the home boasts thick stone slab floors, vaulted cathedral ceilings and second-story atrium windows that bring in a wealth of natural light. Decked out in various hunting trophies and rustic garnishes, each of Bighorn Lodge’s five bedrooms comes complete with large picture windows that take in impressive views of the surrounding landscapes. While keeping with the western charm of the rest of the home, a modernized family room, great room and master bedroom each have surround sound systems and HD plasma televisions.

Besides a lofted six-car garage, the exterior of Bighorn Lodge includes a large parking area that can accommodate as many as 15 to 20 vehicles, along with any sort of outdoor toys one could imagine, such as boats, ATVs, snowmobiles, hang gliders, horse trailers and more. The rear of the estate also includes a massive outdoor fireplace and patio that faces out towards the mountains.

Osbourne LA Home

Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne have listed yet another property in their real estate collection, putting their suburban Los Angeles estate on the market for $12.999.

The 6 bed, 10 bath, 11,000 square foot mansion boasts a re-design by interior designer to the stars Martyn Lawrence-Bullard, and was recently featured in Architectural Digest. The home, in the popular celebrity enclave of Hidden Hills, rests on a hill on the 2.25 acre estate, with city lights and mountain views. As you might expect given the listing price, the manse includes numerous luxury features: Travertine flooring, formal dining room, dressing area, formal entry room, maids quarters, gym, library, study, and a pool, among other amenities.

Amazing opulence featured in this home, the designers went on a glamorous and cluttered frenzy, so much going on it’s hard to know where to look but it all works out in the end like a beautiful piece of artwork. This home gives me the same feeling that watching the Disney movie Fantasia does.

Bite Club

From Australia Vogue Living Debra Cronin’s Bite Club. Loving the decrepit creepy chicness of this place. Who knew that mould stained, paint peeling walls could be so inviting!

The Home of Dita Von Teese

A wonderful article from InStyle magazine Feb 2011 featuring the glamorous and eccentric home of the amazing Dita Von Teese. Lover of vintage glamour at its very best!

Let’s start the tour with her amazingly bright and cheerful pink kitchen.


Imagine This: Senra´s House

This house is a great example of Portugal’s rustic countryside heritage. This stunning house is made up entirely out of three materials; ceramic, wood and stone. This home (designed by architect Manuel Ribeiro) is situated in a valley and deliberately aligned with the sun ensuring that the home benefits in its lighting.

I find this house so amazing and charming and I am in awe of the fabulous and talented work of Manuel Ribeiro who can create something so stunning just out of three elements (wood, ceramic and stone).
