Kathryn Ireland Opens the Doors to Her French Countryside Farmhouse

In the first episode of My Home in France, renowned designer Kathryn Ireland welcomes us inside the 1820 farmhouse she has lovingly transformed over decades.

When Kathryn first bought the home in the French countryside, it was completely derelict and in need of a total renovation. Today, it is a deeply personal expression of her approach to decorating—layered with color, pattern, family heirlooms, and treasures she has collected throughout her life.

Every room reflects Kathryn’s belief that a home should evolve naturally over time. Rather than feeling overly designed, the farmhouse is warm, relaxed, and filled with pieces that hold meaning, creating spaces that feel as comfortable as they are beautiful.

In this first look at My Home in France, Kathryn shares the stories behind the farmhouse, the objects she treasures, and the decorating philosophy that has guided her for decades: that the most inviting homes are those made to be lived in.
