15 Magical Cottages Taken Straight From A Fairy Tale

Home’s often said to be where the heart is, but I’m sure most of us would easily fall in love with these magical fairytale cottages and leave our old homes behind in a heartbeat.

What goes into making a fairytale cottage? First, you need a rural setting, preferably a forest with witches and wolves or fairies and elves hiding behind every tree and rock.

Then there’s the cottage itself. Some are based on historical styles, while others feature fantastic designs found only in their creators’ imaginations. However, even the ones with realistic architectural elements still stand with one foot in reality and the other in a fairy tale.

Arguably the most exciting cottages among these, however, are the ones that are most committed to the realm of fantasy. Wild and strange curves, ornate forms, curling roofs, and little stone pathways make a cottage look like it was torn from the pages of a fairy tale!
