What We Love: This French Burgundy Tudor style home features a stunning renovation of preserved architecture with updated amenities. Throughout this home, there is an inviting feel courtesy of eclectic styling and personal touches. We are especially loving the finished basement that was transformed into a Scottish Pub. We can imagine what a fantastic entertaining space this would be to gather with family and friends.

Tell Us: What do you think of this style of architecture? If this was your home, are there any details in the design that you would have done differently? Please share your thoughts in the Comments!
