House Envy: A Soulful Minneapolis Home Filled with Character
Every so often, a home captures my heart entirely, and this one is a masterclass in European-inspired interiors. Designed by Alecia Stevens Interiors, Cottagewood Gables in Minneapolis is a warm, layered dream that feels both timeless and lived-in.
From the wallpapered ceiling in the pantry (yes, please!) to the exquisite millwork and aged brass fixtures, every inch is a testament to thoughtful design. The mix of vintage treasures and soulful new pieces gives the home a patina that feels collected over generations.
There’s a quiet luxury here; a softness in the palette, a reverence for craftsmanship, and a sense of ease that’s hard to come by. It’s the kind of home that invites you in, wraps you in warmth, and makes you want to linger.
If you’re as smitten as I am, you’ll want to pore over every detail below.
