Incredible Dream Home






















You guys aren’t going to believe this, but this home actually belongs to one of my readers! Desireé Ashworth owns and designed this breathtaking Provo, Utah home in collaboration with Alice Lane Home Collection. Desireé is passionate about blues and greens, and says that she and her husband are also obsessed with anything French, Swedish or Belgium. She also has her own blog, Décor de Provence, where she posts beautiful images, filled with French and Gustavian decor. I just loved this post here with pictures of her home decorated for Christmas!

The talented photographer behind these images is Ashlee Raubach. The detail and light she is able to capture is incredible! I know this home is beautiful on its own, but Ashlee turned it into a work of art! Ashlee also has a blog, and waiting there are lots more (and bigger, we all love bigger!) images and information on this stunning home. So head here and here to see more!

Hope you enjoyed the photos and hearing about these talented and super-sweet ladies! Also, thanks so much for all your kind comments yesterday (I’ve never seen so many in my life!)…your support and enthusiasm means the world to me! Have a great weekend everyone! 🙂

  1. SHUT THE FRONT DOOR! Do you think she would like me move in? I will leave the Husband and kiddos in FL! Can you imagine waking up there every morning?!

    GORGEOUS, thank you for sharing,
    Amy

  4. This is stunning. Of course, the blues and the greens are to die for but the gold knobs on the stove? I'm done. This is great… Thanks for sharing and for the link to desiree's blog!

  6. AMAZING. Simply breathtaking! I envision my future home just like that. I love crisp white with soft hues of blue and green. OMG. I am in love.

    Thanks for sharing! 🙂

  9. Found your blog through Laura Trevey and LOVE it! What a beautiful kitchen/bathroom! SOOO pretty. I'm saving this as inspiration as we are in the process of buying a house and will want to fix things up! 🙂

  14. Ugh. I think I want to copy her exactly when I finally have my dream home. It's amazing. That sea glass subway tile in the kitchen makes my heart palpitate! This is absolutely beautiful.

  16. Your blog is very impressive, a great idea, I will be sending you some of my contacts. Please do the same and it will boost our network.

  18. Absolutely out of this world stunning! I just read yesterday's post too, and congratulations on the House Beautiful shout out!! It is very well-deserved and super exciting! Have a wonderful weekend, Erin!!

  24. What an incredible home…she and her husband are so lucky! I am sure it is like a beach oasis during the winter when there is so much snow outside. Thanks for sharing and hope you have a great weekend!

  25. I can hardly breathe looking at the photos of this home. I am trying to do my entire home in aqua, cream and caramel but this is beyond stunning!

  26. As soon as I opened my email and saw this, I took a deep sigh and melted in my chair. Love it all.It this were by the beach I would call it Heaven!! Thank you so much for sharing this great home. Always look forward to what you have to share. I forwarded this on to someone that love turqouise as much as you, I am sure she is swooning.Have a great weekend! Kathysue

  27. Sigh, swoon, absolutely, positively, amazing. Someone posted it was a bit too grande, but I think it's absolutely appropriate for the house. Of course, it's too grande for mere mortals like me, but what inspiration for a more durable, affordable version.

  29. My jaw just dropped to the floor. It's enough that this house is one of the most gorgeous houses I've ever seen (inside and out), but the fact that it belongs to a reader is just unbelievable! Wow!!! Thanks for sharing this! I can't wait to go check out more photos!

  30. have a great weekend Erin! Found a turquoise piece of art last weekend and thought of you. Thanks for filling our hearts with turquoise, your blog always lifts me up and inspires me to decorate!

  31. OMG~ I want to live there with her and her family…that house is one of the most incredible things I've ever seen. Hopping over to her blog now to see more.
    Thanks for sharing this Erin and happy Friday to you!

  36. i thought it was a european manor…until you said it was in utah! how BEAUTIFUL. if i can get a home like this in utah, i'd move pronto!

  43. ****** "I left my hearrrrrrt, in Provo, Utah…….."

    Thank you for FINDNG this beautiful home to share with us!!!

    We built a delightful lil' ski place in Park City (main house was in St. George) about 7 years ago now, & I STILL HOPE (& promise my heart!) that we will someday return to happily "live out our days".

    Utah (or at least the parts of it I know) is the best kept secret on earth!!! There's nothing ELSE LIKE IT!!! She's one VERRRRY lucky woman to wake up n' enjoy those GLORIOUS MOUNAINS & that INCREDIBLY BEAUTIFUL FRESH AIR everyday!!!

    I almost get giddy about the thought of an early, hour-long walk there~~~ with the dawg, the sweeet uz and I!!!

    Give me even a caretaker's cottage (like in the Bavarian Alps), a rustic lil' worn out old place, a FP or two, my family & friends whom I so love and VOILS! PARADISE!!! (OnEARTH,no less!)~

    THANKS so much~~~ my heart's "all a twitter" at the thought/memories of it all!

    This is better than starting the day off with a bowlof Wheaties!

  56. ENVY! What a gorgeous home!!!!
    The only thing I might possibly change is perhaps the open shelving in the kitchen and that is just a MAYBE. 🙂
