This 1909 red house is not old enough to be primitive / colonial, but that’s how it’s decorated, so if you like that style, you’ll love this cozy home in Corning, New York. And, it’s only $219K.

I like the details, like a wall lamp mounted on the fireplace and the red floor. 

Even the Xmas tree is plain, like a Primitive style tree. Notice how they exposed and illuminated the space under the stairs and made it a feature.

Lovely colonial style fireplace and Prim non-electric candle chandelier.

Lovely kitchen with assorted cabinetry and also notice the painted and stenciled “area rugs” throughout the house. (I wonder if the free-standing cabinets convey.)

Painted stair runner.

The main bd. is lovely. There are 3 bds. in the home.

The 2nd bd. is a cute child’s room.

And, the 3rd bd. is currently set up as a sewing room.

There is only 1 bath, but it’s large and has a wonderful painted and stenciled floor.

The basement isn’t fully finished.

But, it’s set up as a home gym.

The basement leads into the garage.

The garage isn’t currently used for cars, it’s utilized for storage.

And, there’s a wonderful vintage sink in room off the garage.

The porch in the rear is set up as an outdoor living room.

You can see the garage located under the house, and the yard.

Decisions, Decisions....

So, I’m finally painting my dining room and am conflicted about colors. I’m obviously not going to paint over this gorgeous wood, as one of the previous owners spent weeks stripping it. 

I also cannot decide what to do with my mantel! I have some pretty pewter, but also some lovely paintings, prints and pottery. After looking at some of these lovely images from A Primitive Place magazine, I’m even more conflicted because they look so amazing! I do plan to buying a nice crane and maybe adding some fireplace cooking tools so I can finally make mac and cheese as it as originally made! 

What do you guys think? Here are some inspirational ideas: 

I really really love 2 & 3 the most. I have hanging herbs in my kitchen, so I don’t think I will go that route. But I love the handmade candles hanging there along with the tools. I’ve decided to going with some pewter candlesticks on the mantel as well..but I can’t decide if I should keep it simple or make it more pretty.

Tonight is the night when dead leaves fly, like witches on broomsticks' across the sky, and pumpkins stare through sheaves and leaves everywehere, when ghoul, and ghost, and goblin shot dance 'round their queen, it's Halloween!
