Enjoy this repeat Feature Friday today with updated new pictures. Jen is still blogging and has a gorgeous blog and home, so please visit her and look around at all she does. Jen is still in the same coastal home in NY, so I’m sharing updated pics of her spaces. It’s such pretty home and I know you’ll love it as much as I do. She has done an incredible job with her home.

I’ve got another fun feature for you today, from Jen at City Farmhouse. She and her hubby found their dream home a couple of years ago, a renovated beach cottage on a tree-lined street on the eastern coastline of Long Island that overlooks the bay. How dreamy does that sound? Jen’s style is definitely upscale farmhouse and she is a DIY loving mom of 2 who has made her home over beautifully.
Per Jen, this was a very small 2 bedroom house that was completely renovated in 2005. I’d say they found a gem.
Love the front door shade and those shingles, be still my heart.
And look just over the railing…it’s water! What a view!
Jen’s style is warm and neutral with pops of color, but definitely not boring. I love her mix.
The drapes in the living room and all the details she’s put together add up to a beautiful living room.
What a gorgeous bank of windows.
Looking into the dining room which you are going to love.
Pretty shades of neutrals and black.
Jen’s new kitchen is just stunning! I love everything about it.
Looks like this is a family living space, so pretty and colorful too.
Jen has 2 boys and their bedrooms are so unique and creative.
Master bedroom
Their outdoor spaces are stunning too, what a great job!
What a beautiful home they have, don’t you just love it?
I know you enjoyed the tour as much as I did, at City Farmhouse. Stop on over and say hello to her, she has an incredible blog.
Oh my gosh! How have I missed City Farmhouse? Thanks for introducing me to her and her blog. Her home is gorgeous and I really like her use of neutrals in decorating a beach house. One detail I really liked what how she painted a chalkboard surface on that cupboard in the kitchen. So pretty!
What an absolutely gorgeous home! One of my favorite house tours yet! ~Kerri
Gorgeous, gorgeous!!
But, FYI, while Long Island is “on” the east coast, it doesn’t “have” an east coast. They’re either on the north shore or the south shore of L.I. If they’re overlooking the “bay,” if it’s the Great South Bay, they’re on (duh) the south shore.
But there’s plenty of water around here, so they could really be practically anywhere and still have a water view!
Great feature — keep up the good work!
Absolutely lovely!!! Love looking at your blog everyday with the girls!!!
Thank you Rhonda for this amazing feature! I will be sure to spread the word as I am so thrilled to be here:)!
Thank you ladies for your super kind comments! Laura- you are indeed correct we have a north & south shore. We live out east on LI & on the coast, so with out getting too specific that is how I like to refer to it:).
Again, many thanks Rhonda!!!

This home was lovely! I enjoyed all of the pictures. Thank you.
Oh thanks for the beautiful tour. I am going to pop over to her blog now. Thanks for sharing.
What a lovely home! Thank you for posting and introducing to City Farmhouse. That has given me such great ideas for my house! I love her style and the colors are just to die for.
Now I have to go get busy!! :0)

Gorgeous! I used the same fabric (dining room chairs) to reupholster a chair in our master bedroom. I thought the pattern would be too much in a dining room, and I’m clearly wrong.
Rhoda, I see now what you mean about photography. This home is absolutely gorgeous and the pictures tell the story perfectly.
Hi Rhoda! Thanks again, I just had to apologize for my goof earlier.
I am so grateful!!!Have a fantastic weekend!

Beautifully done. It’s light and soothing. I used the DR chair fabric for master bedroom and bathroom drapes (Premier Prints-Barber Taupe Robin). That company has a lot of fun fabrics.
Beautiful home…..enjoyed the tour while having a bowl of peach cobbler and ice cream made from your Mother’s recipe. Yummy! Thanks for sharing both.
I love all the layering of textures and colors to create interest, while still staying so calm and soothing… never taking away from the view. What a beautiful home!
I just love her home too!
Everything looks so nice and very comfy and warm!!
Jenn
Rhoda, You made my day! I can’t wait to get my hands on Country Living Decorating With White. Thanks for the give away; I’m so excited! Give your dad a hug, just because!
Jen’s style is most definitely my style, my whole house is neutral, I hope not boring too. I am just in the process of doing up my guest bedroom, again neutral but this time with some daring touches of black…hoping it will all pull together.
I love the style of Jen’s house exterior, its very pretty and it shows you what you can do when renovating a small house. I would love to pop through our roof but it would mean major re-footing of the home so we are going to look at a small rear extension dining room.
Love, love this post 🙂

Such a charming home- and that view is fantastic!
Best,
Mimi
Love the pillows on the sofa, especially the last one. Where did you buy them?
Thanks!
