This beautiful bungalow is part of a 31- cottage beach community in Greenport, New York. The cottage is surrounded by the shores of the Peconic Bay. Elena Colombo fell in love with its gorgeous surroundings and the atmosphere of the community. The decor of the house is inspired by nature that surrounds it. Elena has an incredible sense of color and amazing ability to improvise and create unique pieces that complement her furnishings.

We love the gorgeous shell chandeliers, red coral pillows and tree stumps that Elena painted with 5 layers of red paint. The white brick fireplace is a focal point of the living room. It looks great with the painted floor and the custom built corner bookshelf. We also love her kitchen. It feels so cheery and inviting.
