Sarah Phillipps is an interior designer trained in London and the voice behind the Instagram account, "She Holds Dearly". She and her family are the proud owners of a 1906 farmhouse that Sarah happened upon one day while out with the kids. She inquired with a friend about the home and was told that the farmhouse, and the land it sat on, had been owned by a family for many years and that they would never sell. However, once she took a closer look at the home she discovered that it was for sale and within their price range, and the rest is history.
A few years have past and Sarah has had the time to add her personal touch to this century-old home. Her style, a combination of rustic decor and old world charm, truly accentuates the beauty of this historical home. Nothing is overdone or overwhelming but carefully designed and thoughtfully arranged, making this home a deserving of a second look.
