Since the area is raised and this affords you a good deal of privacy, why do you need window treatments? They're not required.

We are really happy with light filtering roller shades in our living room. They keep heat put in summer and heat in, in winter. Our doors we left bare. Zero regrets

All good ideas and suggestions. My 4th option was “do nothing…enjoy the nice window casings that skilled craftsmen and $$ put there” but I had already hit enter. Glad that came up as an option. And thanks a ton for the photos!

How abour solar shades where the sun beats in and nothing on the rest The shades allow you to keep the view but control the heat and UV which BTW can ruin even leather over time.. If night time privacy is a big deal then nice simple linen drapes that can open and close easily .

Since the windows and trim look nice, I would just do simple inside mounted cellular shades for when you need to block the sun and for night time privacy. Order them in a white that matches your trim and they will barely be noticed when they are fully raised.

^ agree and if it’s a second home I think it’s nice to close it up a bit when you leave but that’s just me

second home?! why live in the city when you can live in paradise?! 😇🏝️

You have another vote for cellular honeycomb blinds inside the window frame. In the living room I would only do the lowers. This would be for privacy at night and when you are away. They stack up nicely and out of view. Something close to the colour of your trim. I may think also about patterned drapery side panels but I would wait for that till you are in the house for a bit with all your furniture in place to see if you need that accent.

Although you don’t need anything regarding privacy, wait to decide until after the furniture/decor is added and you’ve lived in for a bit. From a functionality perspective in kitchen, blocking the direct sunlight will save things from bleaching and suggest an inside mounted treatment. In the living room, given the covered patio, the sun is not an issue and I’d lean towards nothing.

woe those are fabulous spaces! Thanks so much for the photos
