HOUSE TOUR | Inside A Classic Colonial Home in Connecticut

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Brand strategist Lizzi Bickford Meadow takes us inside her darling Colonial home in New Canaan, Connecticut.
For more extraordinary home tours, visit our website: homeworthy.com/
Built in 1952, Lizzi's traditional colonial home has been masterfully transformed into an inviting space designed for entertaining and creating lasting memories. Lizzi's unique touch is evident in every room, where brass and antique silver accents add a subtle sparkle, and nods to equestrian influences create a harmonious blend of classic elegance and whimsy.
What sets Lizzi's home apart is not only its stunning design but also the intentional approach she takes to foster an environment where people linger and stay. Embracing the country lifestyle, the house radiates warmth with a chintz explosion and a color palette featuring celery hues, rich browns, and playful prints. Despite residing there for only two years, Lizzi has artfully layered the space with a sense of history, incorporating inherited pieces and heirlooms to achieve a timeless aesthetic.
Beyond the visual allure, Lizzi's diverse background adds an intriguing layer to the narrative of her home. From her beginnings in the music industry to launching her own consulting company, specializing in telling brand stories through experience and marketing strategies, Lizzi's creative sensibilities are woven into every aspect of her thoughtfully curated home.

    I knew there was something special about this lady: how she sashays up to the front door at the start, how she elegantly sat down and arranged her skirt...yep..her mother was a fashion model....the apple doesnt fall far from the tree. This host is so gracious and relaxed, comfortable in her own skin, practical, realistic and warm. I agree and give a nod to: everything doesn't have to match perfectly. She does it "her way". The appreciation for family heirlooms is so refreshing. Thx, Homeworthy.

    I love that she sees the value in an older home that maybe doesn’t have the huge magnificent entryways or vaulted ceilings throughout the home that’s the popular trend, yet her style is excellent, realistic, and demonstrates she values classic traditional “never gonna go out of style” style. I am in love with this and will be watching over and over! Stunning home! Her personality is calm but knowledgeable and would be excellent to work with!

It is obvious that you can afford all brand new expensive furniture and decor but you choose to have family heirlooms and family possessions that have a story and memories. Again thank you for the tour. I would have liked to see the kids bedrooms and your outdoor spaces as well. But there is always next time!

    WHat I really loved was when she said... there were no short cuts..it took a lot of hard work and passion and hours on planes. It is so easy to be envious of women like her, that look like they have it all. But like she said... she sees an opportunity and goes for it. I haven't done that , so my life looks very different. She is a perfect example of Life Is What You Make IT!

The sense of style and the way that so many personal items, antiques, fabrics and prints have been gathered together to create such beauty and comfort is amazing. Thoroughly inspired and I may be getting a tester pot of Skimming Milk F&B for my own living room after seeing it work so well here. Thanks for another great video!

    Thank you Homeworthy! This home is exquisite, the homeowner is brilliant and it’s one video I shall watch again. Lizzie has been well taught by her mother to appreciate good furniture regardless of where it was bought, and a comfortable chair can be reupholstered many times. I too am a strong believer in buying good furniture and giving it a new life (but I don’t paint wood!) I loved listening to her speak of her husband, their happiness shone through in her words which brought a genuine smile to my face. When a home is furnished with that kind of love, you know it will be warm and inviting and though this one is extremely elegant, it’s not so precious that guests will be scared to touch anything. Well done Lizzie, your home is stunning.

    Stunning home and owner. So many beautiful pieces of furniture and decorative items. I love that nothing is for best, the china and silverware is used daily, same in our house. Of course its upsetting when a plate gets broken, but it could easily never be seen and broken the first time its used. I'd much rather have seen and enjoyed it many times. I like that her children are learning to appreciate handling these items too. Would love to have seen bedrooms and bathrooms too.
