My sister and I toured the farm house today. The house is used as a wedding location besides being an organic apple farm. To compare your pictures above with what we saw today was like night and day. The house was quite stark. We walked in the front door to see a large office type of room to the right. A long hallway straight a head with the staircase. To the left was the livingroom and further left was the kitchen. We were not allowed upstairs as somebody is living there. Everything I loved about the house was missing. The house we saw today seemed like a shell in comparison. The property was truly beautiful but the house seem to lack warmth the movie showed it had.

Just had to share that this same house made the local newspaper. It’s going to be one of the hertiage tour homes in Petaluma in a couple of weeks:

I guess you’ll know what I’ll be doing that day!

Kind regards!

I’m so happy you have a blog for me to relive them! I prefer the second house–too much clutter at the farmhouse.

The old farmhouse is in my home town! I’ve never seen it. I’ll have to google it or ask my parents about it. Fun!

I know these were movie sets, but! How refreshing to see rooms that are not “after” photos or have been scrubbed, polished and culled into submission prior to a photo layout or sales brochure. My children have moved on but at least one room of the house needs to be dusted, my cat Daffodil has left a hair ball somewhere, breakfast dishes need to be put in the dishwasher as soon as I unload the darned thing, my perfectly organized pantry somehow came undone sometime during the night, I need to go to the grocery store so won’t reorganize the pantry right now and I still don’t have the paper management thing down in spite of all the tips I get from About.com. I just purchased a new book so I guess I will fire up the old Kindle and get to reading.
