Exterior Architecture

Main Living & Kitchen Areas

• • The Living Room centers around a dramatic floor-to-ceiling fireplace featuring a whitewashed brick lower surround, a thick wood mantel, and white vertical shiplap stretching up to a vaulted ceiling. The fireplace is flanked by custom white built-in cabinets with wood tops and floating shelves.
  • The Kitchen carries over the same design language with white shaker cabinets, a large natural wood island with a white marble countertop, and a custom wood range hood. The whitewashed brick from the fireplace is repeated here as a backsplash, complete with a herringbone pattern focal point behind a wall-mounted matte black pot filler. A striking three-light black metal and clear glass chandelier hangs over the island.

Bedrooms & Utility Spaces

• • The Bedrooms are designed for comfort, featuring plush, light gray carpeting, neutral white walls, and traditional arched-panel doors. The primary bedroom features an elegant tray ceiling with a matte black ceiling fan and flows directly into an en-suite bathroom showcasing a light natural wood vanity.
  • The Laundry Room adds a playful, classic touch to the home’s utilitarian side with a bold black-and-white checkered tile floor.
