Everything I don't like clutter and messy but I love it here. Very inner child. The childrens areas are not restricted and probably the most interesting and fun areas I've seen in a family type of home. Its like a big Doll House, tree house as its called you just want to come in and play dress up or paint.

Those are just the most darling little girls, lucky.

This house is charmingly lived-in. Not staged lived-in, but I like that it's a little bit messy. My house certainly is. Cute!

This is, hands down, my favorite house tour that I've seen on AT. This is everything that I aspire to with my house!

Other than the sofa, I think this home is really cute. Love the relaxed look.

This house is adorable. I love a tiny cottage.
Happy Wednesday.

Noa is a lucky girl!

big and awesome. you can really see here style come through ,,,,a lot. great house.

With the exception of a few details in the bathroom, family room and childrens' room, this house looks discombobulated. It was interesting looking through the pictures though, and sorry.

the guy hiding in the small room in the 2nd to last shot was a surprise!
otherwise, the place is charming. a lotta clutter, but happy.

I love it. I just hope Noa doesn't grow to be 6 feet tall. Those low rooms, now charming, will then become simply challenging.

Love the artwork above the stove!!

I love, love, love this home. It's so perfectly lived-in, the "clutter" is so artful. So wonderful!

I agree w/B77 and OTILLY-it's cluttered in a charming way but I don't like clutter on the floor. Makes the rooms look smaller.
I can see some DYI'er trying to get a hold of that vanity in the little girls room! :o)
Love the little secret nooks.

What a charming little home! This space is so beautiful and inviting, decorated but not "decorator." I love all of the personality that shows through in each detail - especially how the owner has used her jewelry and handbags as part of the decor. Is that a picture of Amma, the hugging saint above Noa's bed?... What a cozy home for a creative little girl! Thank you for sharing!

Amazing use of space, color and ingenuity. The secret space for Noa is a gem, and I love the shoe bags for little gems a child loves...Faith certainly has created a warm and wonderful place to live for her and Noa and I love it.

I wanted to like it, but honestly, I think it looks really cluttered and messy. Sorry.

You know, I feel like I shouldn't, but I love twinkle lights! And the pink ones here are adorable. I also find myself surprisingly liking the carpet in the living room? The texture / pattern are very calm and inviting. I agree it all could be picked up a little but this is reality, right? My home is also about this level of organized. Anyway very sweet space, thank you :)

This is a beautiful home. I love all the little nooks and crannies and the tiny door in the kitchen is the cherry on top! Noa's secret space is (I'm sure) the envy of all her friends, and, if I'm honest, me too. I am pleased to note that I have that picture over the cooker, perhaps there's hope that one day I'll live somewhere as great as this. Well done and thanks for sharing.

love,love,love! thank you for sharing.

It REALLY has that lived-in vibe, and I think it's adorable. I'm sick of seeing immaculately clean spaces on here. I don't think most people keep their homes that clean and pristine at all times. This house is so warm and inviting. :)

RUTHTOOTH could you tell me who made the picture above the cooker?

Love, love, love.

Thank you for sharing something worn and lived-in with some whimsy. I get tiresome of some of these huge and sterile posts where everything is just so, feels brand new. and matchy matchy.

I wanna set fire that sofa...the rest of the house is great though!

Yes it was cluttered, but it was a small space and it's too be expected, especially with a kid. That said, I really liked it. Totally a space I would have signed a lease on when I was single (my husband is over 6 ft so that place wouldn't work for us now), great character and charm. I'm sure it's refreshing to step in there after a hectic LA day!!

I'm glad I'm not the first to not like the sofa......otherwise it seems magical and fun.

Words can not express how much I love this house! It's so Chocolat to me!

Faith and Justina, we must be related . . . I didn't know of any other Blakeney's (with two e's) west of Arizona. And here you are.

Love the look . . . inviting, bohemian and funky.

There's so much love and creativity in this home, beautiful!

I loved the "Boys not allowed" sign and then the next shot of the man chillin like it said the opposite. Lol! Cute!!!

Nice vibe, but a little too cluttered. All the doodads in that bathroom literally gave me pause. I twitched. The little chandelier in the kids' room was rather adorable, though.

This is everything a home should be, an absolute delight. You can tell how much fun they have living here and each space has been so thoughtfully put together. Ok, it's a bit clutttered but they totally pull it off, anyway. It's totally magical and the little nook for Noa is a dream - I want one! One of the best tours I have ever seen- thanks AT!

The clutter and haphazard-ness would make me crazy!

Way too much clutter but I like the kids room.

I am a minimalist. I hate clutter. But I love love loved this house! It is so natural and warm and delightful! Thanks for sharing.

How great to see a place on AT that looks lived in! Looks like a happy home.

I do not like this tour. I hate clutter. It would make me crazy. I do like the windows and the artwork!

It's a scary day when regular things we use in life, like fridge magnets and shoes, are considered 'clutter'. Thank you AT for a house tour that actually feels like we're in someone else's home.

I love the sofa!!

This is fun — quite different from usually AT tours, so thank you for mixing it up. This is the perfect space for a child's imagination! I would have been in absolute heaven as a kid.

This is one of my favorite AT tours ever -- none of the usual design cliches, no "don't touch" perfection. I love the sunny rooms, the charm, the tiny balcony. It looks like fun, warm people live here and enjoy themselves. Clutter -- so what? I bet that little girl is much happier than in some pristine Designed Space.

excellent tour, charming lived in home, not sterile! I love how
you made the most of your space and it looks like you had
a good time doing it!

Totally fun and this house puts a smile on your face.

I am utterly in love with this little house! One of the best parts of making your living space yours, is to put the things you love in every nook and cranny. What better way to spend the day then looking up and seeing something that makes you smile.
You can tell that they have put themselves into making this a home, where you can live and dream. Well done!

It looks like fun happens here.

What I like about it is that I can't tell where the children's area begins and ends. What I would have liked to see is some newer furniture mixed with the old & less clutter.

My loft is clean and modern. I love it, sleek and lovely. But I love, love, love this look - lived in, interesting array of clutter, fun, colorful!! I want to live in both places! It's so hard to be a Gemini sometimes!

Lived in I love, but seriously, the clutter is making my anxious.

At first I thought, yikes cluttery, but I really took my time with each image and you know what.... it's a look. And I like it. A lot! Great job Faith, I especially agree with what she wrote in the advice field. All that with 750 square feet... well done.

I "clutterly" loved this house. Yes, a bit of chaos with the clutter but it's so charming you overlook all the stuff. The nooks and cranny's are so wonderful, lucky Noa!!

Magical!

Reminds me of Boston 1968, very collegee.

Sorry, cute space but it looks like it has been ransacked.

When I read the comments before taking the house tour, I was expecting not to like this, but, know what, I love this house because it's very interesting. Yeah, it's a little more cluttered than I would have it, but in this house there's a lot of life.

hell yeah! this place is absolutely gorgeous. It feels so personal. I love all of the objets d'arts, the sleeping nook, the couch! So so beautiful.

Oh my goodness goodness goodness, this house is a dream.

I enjoyed the tour. It was fun discovering things in each pic. So happy to see Iggy Peck Architect! Everyone in our family loves it. Yes, it is officially a children's book, but if you are a fan of creativity, architecture and of MCM design, I recommend it. I would think many AT readers would enjoy it.

Awesome sweet house :) And yes, very much alive and filled with happiness of daily life :) I think we all collect things, that might be cold clutter by some standards, and that's what makes our space special and unique, what brings the character and energy to our personal spaces called homes. If we take away all of that, the place where we live would be called a 'house'- a very objective and empty description of human nest :) I love all this HOME tour :)

Makes me want to quit my job and write poetry. The guy behind the small door looks like he just walked through the portal in "Being John Malkovich."

I would have LOVED to have had that room when I was little - complete with My Melody and stuffed animals and chandeliered hangout and random ET in a suit. It's a very fun, personal space. I love how CLEARLY this place is lived in. Can't figure out if it's rent or own. I'm thinking rent unless it's a condo. Affordable, livable space is hard to come by over here on the Westside - even renting.

charming .magical .Very lived in & loved in

I don't like this. There's no sense of the space because it's sooooo cluttered. I don't see any style here - just a lot of random objects and mess.

Slanted ceilings make for an interesting apartment. I've always lived in brand new, straight walled, freshly carpeted, overly managed apartment communities. Not really interesting. I'd love to have an inspired living space like the one featured here. Though I wouldn't have nearly as much clutter, I would still utilize the space all the same.

alot of loving style; a sweet home for mom and daughter; the gypsy spirit shines through; and we all know gypsies are just having way to much fun to get uptight about some clutter; heck gypsies live for the great treasures the boring call clutter. !! thanks for sharing your treehouse!

Not relaxing looking place at all. Too much of too much.

It looks very much lived-in and loved by the owners. Some aspects are charming, but I wanted to get in there and de-clutter, straighten piles, and put things away. The rows of shoes in the living room, the bags on the pegs, the art work and books stacked on the floor and leaning against the wall - that would drive me crazy. To each his own! ♥

Fun, funky, full of character. I love the reading nook! Also, the fact that it looks like actual humans live here, and I can't name-check every other bit of furniture from the DWR catalog. Very nice!

So fun and cute. Carefree California vibe. Love it!!

Hilarious when all the minimalists gasp at the clutter. Guess what?? Some folk don't like minimalism!!!

I love the small 'family' home tours because, to be honest, when the Children come along, that's when the pressure to go bigger really kicks in. We could really do with the inspiration that home's like this give us. I'd love to have seen a floor plan for this home because it's square footage is the size of an average two bedroom flat on this side of the pond and I was curious about the layout.

My two little girls dream!!! and must admit mine too!! absolutely love, love,I mean love it!!! And clutter doesn't have to sound as negative:) Finally to quote Cheryl Crow "If it Makes you HAPPY It can't be that bad" I think that's how it goes?

Weird what people think of as 'clutter'. Seems like the whole clutter concept was created for enterprising people to take advantage of ( clutter consultants?) and to give people something else to be anxious about. Its a lovely to see a place that dosen't look staged to death and one can imagine actually being able to breathe in

I. LOVE. YOU. plain and simple. this space is a joy.
