This is the door to Maria and Michael’s dwelling in St. André in southern France. They lived in an old winery they had converted.
The front exterior was unchanged without indication of the delightful spaces they had designed inside. In addition to their own living space they carved out an apartment as well, which we rented for a couple of weeks so we could explore the area.
How lovely!

Hi Charlie. They had been living in Germany and spent the summers of several years renovating the winery and picking up pieces to adorn it. They retrieved a beautiful mantel from the Dordogne region of France and had a iron spiral staircase especially built in Britain to take them upstairs.

It was. There was a rooftop terrace with a view to the Pyrenees and a built-in BBQ pit. The bakery was just down the street. Quite delightful. 🙂
