One of my favorite homes on their website, this charming french provincial cottage was designed to look much smaller from the street. From the back, it is much easier to get a true sense of the homes size.
This breath-taking Beaux Arts mansion was originally built in 1926, modeled after a palace built by Napoleon for his first wife, Josephine. After years of neglect, a young family purchased the home, and it was lovingly restored by Barnes Vanze.
Barnes Vanze also does interior design, and the interiors are just as beautiful as the homes, with impeccable attention to detail.
The work of Barnes Vanze Architects has been features in over 100 publications including Period Homes, Southern Living, House beautiful, and Southern Accents.

"charming french provincial cottage" Wow what a street view. Now that I've seen the back I'm a little fuzzy on the cottage thing LOL. I like their Vineyard Farmhouse which also conceals its size and has shapes that are irresistible to me. Thanks so much.
