A Dreamy Cottage by the Ocean Filled with Vintage Finds
It was the vintage zinc bath tub looking out over the ocean which caught my eye.
Instantly knowing that there was more about this home to be discovered, I delved deeper into the @thevintagerose_ instagram feed – and an entire coastal cottage filled with vintage treasures unravelled before me!  
The heritage cottage belongs to Amanda Skipper – who has lovingly restored the hideaway on the shore of Moulting Bay on Tasmania’s east coast over time. Today Amanda and her partner can relax and enjoy in the views – whether from the veranda, sitting room or of course, the bath tub!

Beautiful!
Having grown up sailing and now living a few metres from the Öresund in Malmö, Sweden, I find there is nothing more relaxing than looking out over the water. It’s as if everything gets put into perspective and all worries fall away. Do you feel the same? It’s my lifelong dream to live in a cottage like this. 
It’s not just the view though. It’s also the way it tells a tale of a past life through old brick walls, wood flooring, arches, a fireplace and all the other architectural details. And of course all the vintage finds!
Could you imagine relaxing here too? 
See more of Amanda’s charming cottage over at @thevintagerose_. And just because we could all use a little dreaming this weekend, here are some more homes by the sea to enjoy: 
Right folks, that’s it from me. The weather is so beautiful today, I might just switch off my laptop and head out doors. It’s POETS day after all – (Push Off Early, Tomorrow’s Saturday). 
I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
