Cottage Interior Design: Westchester Cottage by Sara Mosele Interiors

Project Overview

This 1929-built Westchester cottage is a celebration of timeless charm and contemporary comfort. Designed by Sara Mosele Interiors, the project reflects the best of cottage interior design—cozy, refined, and deeply rooted in tradition. Located in a leafy neighborhood reminiscent of a Cotswold village, the home was reimagined with a careful blend of rustic character and modern sensibility.

Design Vision

The focus of this project was a full interior design transformation rather than structural renovation. Sara’s vision respected the original layout while introducing layers of warmth and elegance. Modern Italian furnishings were carefully selected to contrast and complement the home's historic architecture, resulting in a curated, lived-in feel.
