Hideaway, Le Marche - San Marino, Italy A historical Hideaway. Image courtesy on the realtor, Leo Trippi. A well-hidden place where the spirit finds its peace, nested between the Romagna, the Marches and Tuscany. Entering the gate, one leaves behind the pace of chaotic lives, and abandons itself to the joy of living of this ancient land. It is meant to be understood as a site of experience, where nature, culture, history and pleasure are elevated to the centre of things in order to finally rediscover it in oneself. A sort of “back to the simplicity”, aiming to dedicate oneself to observation and drawing from it valuable experiences for one’s life. Each of the three houses presents itself as an unexpected world in its own right, closed in on itself and yet a harmonious part of the whole, waiting to be enlivened by lively laughter, animated conversation and playfulness. This territory is a paradise for lovers of nature and the great outdoors. The sheer variety of places and landscapes enables visitors to take excursions on foot, on horseback or by mountain bike. History and architecture enthusiasts can follow an itinerary of strongholds and castles dotted around the area. Lovers of gourmet food will discover a full range of traditional dishes and quality local produce all year round. The rich variety of museums enables exploration into the rural arts, medieval architecture, archaeological finds and contemporary art.

Limestone steps and terraces float through the gardens drawing the visitor into the landscape. A gradual approach to the house softens the steep site and strengthens the connection of the house to the street and neighbourhood. The planting, composed of a colour palette of pale blues and silvers, displays varying textures of grasses, bold architectural perennials, and the soft silvery mounds of the Lamb’s Ear that contrast beautifully against the clean lines of the steps and terraces. The back garden showcases a generous limestone terrace that blurs the lines between house and garden and an intimate dining area settled into the Oak trees. Viewed from many vantage points throughout the house, a grove of serviceberries at the back of the garden, nestled in a matrix planting of ferns and native groundcovers, provides a contemporary nod to the ravine setting and a dynamic seasonal backdrop.

This image centers around a timeless birdbath, its soft patina blending into a symphony of white roses, deep purple blooms, and rich greenery. Positioned as a focal point, the birdbath draws visitors into this quiet garden room, where dappled sunlight filters through olive and oak canopies. The planting design emphasizes texture, fragrance, and movement, with lavender and salvia adding a burst of color against the restful white blooms. This space reflects the landscape’s romance and refinement, offering a place to pause and reconnect with nature. Designed for sensory immersion, it invites guests to listen, breathe, and admire.

You know that enchanting feeling you get when stepping into a luxury boutique hotel or that coveted Airbnb that’s always fully booked? Imagine a guest bathroom that echoes that experience — an atmosphere draws visitors in -- that’s their own welcoming and serene retreat. A place where visiting friends or family feel like they’ve checked into a beautiful getaway—filled with bright natural light, classic tile underfoot, crisp white walls, and a sophisticated play of pattern. Where the exquisite finishes, thoughtful layout, soaking tub, black vanity with quartz counter, black framed mirror, wood mahogany door, linen closet, and city motif wallpaper have been curated for comfort and style. A pampered “stay-a-while” guest experience. Photography by Patricia Burke

These Biltmore Lake homeowners were looking to customize and update their newly purchased property, turning it into a home all their own. The Hands of Sean Perry Co. worked diligently to renovate four of the home’s bathrooms and create a new, additional en suite bath. In the living room, the team designed and constructed a new fireplace facade with built-in bookcases — and, in the basement, a stunning new focal wall was designed and installed to draw visitors’ attention. Outside, the entryway was given a facelift with new and striking doors. In addition to the home renovations, the team built a brand-new detached garage on the property.

The living room draws visitors into the room with the use of a bold lime green, chartreuse, navy, and turquoise palette. A radial seating plan encourages lively conversations but also provides a cozy place to curl up with a book.
