The shingled cottage on Southport Island, Maine, was built more than a century ago and is as close to the water as you can get on this rocky coastline.
Owner/designer Libby Cameron painted the staircase banister and treads in Benjamin Moore's Chrome Green. Most of the floors all over the rambling cottage are painted this color too. I like it!
The long built-in bench in the sitting room is where people sit and talk on the only phone in the house.
The owner's favorite place to sit. There is a screened porch alongside for outdoor dining. Want to see more? There's a slideshow here showing the carefree and charming interior. You'll love it!!!

Every since I was a kid I've had a thing for dark green woodwork. It might, possibly, be a vague memory of my grandparents' summer cottage on the lake. I finally satisfied my wish for green woodwork by painting my DR woodwork green. Makes me happy. Love this cottage.
Lordy, that's lovely! Lots of ideas to borrow there.
What a killer view. I love a cottage with nooks and crannies to discover.
