What is the Sheep's Nest?

"The Sheep's Nest" is a charming little English Cottage nestled in the foothills of the Catskill Mountains. My husband and I visited England in 2009 and were so inspired by the cottages that we decided to build our own here in upstate NY. Here you will find Country French Embellishments for your home. A blend of old and new with a touch of European elegance. Come visit us and have a cup of tea, or nestle in at home and enjoy us here on the web.




Welcome and Cheers!

WE HAVE BROKEN GROUND

It has been a crazy summer so far, but we have finally started the actual building of the cottage!!

We are doing a modified version of an "Alaskan Slab". This is a view from where you will enter the building.  In the background is the main road and the beautiful mountains.



This view is from the road side looking towards the back of our property.


The water lines and radiant heat tubing have all been laid out and the next step is to pour the concrete.

If all goes well we should pour tomorrow!  Keeping my fingers crossed.
