What color is Benjamin Moore Coastal Cottage?

Benjamin Moore Coastal Cottage 1164 is a light, softly muted peach-beige with a noticeable warm blush beneath its creamy surface. Its pale value keeps it airy on broad walls, while the pink-tan cast gives it more character than a standard off-white. In bright daylight, Coastal Cottage can read as a gentle shell-like neutral; under warm lamps, its peach undertone becomes more apparent. It suits bedrooms, living rooms, and powder rooms where a warm, low-contrast backdrop is wanted. Pair it with soft ivory trim, honey-toned oak, natural linen, terracotta pottery, or muted sage accents for an earthy, relaxed palette.
