Magnolia
The Space
Magnolia at Franklin Vale Retreat is a private sanctuary — graceful, refined, and closely connected to nature. Interiors are timeless and quietly luxurious, with hand-selected furnishings and an earthy palette. Panoramic windows draw in the landscape and natural light, encouraging slower moments and deep exhale.
Interior Design by Diane Bergeron
Magnolia’s interiors are infused with a soft green palette, curated by internationally renowned interior designer, Diane Bergeron, to echo the surrounding gardens. Furniture from Diane’s Arthur G. collection is upholstered in fabrics from her line; handcrafted rugs, woven raffia wall coverings in the bedroom, and hardwood floors bring warmth and character. Lamps and wall lights cast a gentle evening glow, while a tailored bedhead and curated artwork complete a tranquil, cohesive sanctuary.
Amenities
Magnolia includes a sumptuous bathroom with luxe amenities, a fully equipped kitchen, plush king bedding, and generous indoor–outdoor living areas.
The Garden
Magnolia’s garden is shaped around its namesake magnolia trees to set an elegant, tranquil tone. Layered plantings of ornamental plums, seaside lavender and loropetalum chinesis are anchored by shaped spheres of westringia and lavender, with classic English box borders for structure. A private courtyard garden includes a striking sengaku maple in a large pot — a focal point for slow mornings and quiet evenings, viewed directly from the villa’s interiors.
