Who lives in a house like this? The answer is... you can. Houses just like the ones featured in maia’s cross stitch range are available to buy in the US. It’s a bit of a trek for us Brits, but for the ultimate Thomas Kinkade fan, perhaps they are a dream come true.

Thomas Kinkade’s original paintings have long inspired stitchers to stitch. Their air of romance captures the imagination of people the world over, and lately they have caught the eye of property developers HST Group, who now have a street of homes inspired by Thomas Kinkade art.

These homes have been built in the residential community of ‘The Gates of Old Hawthorne’, in Missouri, US, so you can enjoy traditionally inspired surroundings and chocolate box perfection, as well as decorate your walls with Thomas Kinkade paintings and maia cross stitch!

But click here if you can only afford to stitch one!
