Entrance
Lush garden borders lead along a stone path toward a wood gate at the end. Brick walls rise beside black-trimmed windows and steel-framed glass doors. Tall shrubs and dense planting create privacy around the perimeter. Bright natural light and greenery reflect off the glass, blending indoor and outdoor boundaries.
Living Room
Eclectic seating surrounds a glass coffee table in the living area beneath a large chandelier. A mural of a horse spans the fireplace wall, blending with brick and steel elements throughout the room. Oversized windows line the back wall, opening the space to the outdoors. Layered lighting and bold furnishings finish the space.
Kitchen
Steel stair railings cut across the backdrop of this open kitchen, combining raw materials and clean lines. A central island includes barstools, pendant lighting, and stone counters. Glass-front cabinets and wood slats bring in texture above black appliances. Ceiling beams and brick walls reinforce the industrial warmth of the space.
Dining Area
Oversized windows bring in tree-filtered light to the dining area, where brick walls and exposed beams frame the setting. A long wood table anchors the room, surrounded by mixed-style chairs including plaid armchairs at each end. An abstract painting and colorful wall sculpture break up the symmetry. Pale drapery softens the tall window frames.
Wine Cellar
Curved glass doors open into a wine cellar framed by exposed brick and wood beams. Wall-mounted racks extend to the ceiling, surrounding a central table topped with candlesticks. Spiral stairs in cast iron rise beside the entry. A horse sculpture anchors the far wall under soft pendant lighting.
Bedroom
Sloped wood ceilings and exposed brick walls meet in this cozy bedroom with a fireplace at the center. Large windows and patterned drapes frame the view of blooming plants just beyond. Built-in shelving flanks a television setup, while a pair of leather chairs creates a reading nook. A colorful blanket drapes over the bed at the room’s edge.
Bathroom
Narrow proportions stretch the bathroom into a gallery-like layout, with a freestanding tub facing a long double vanity. Marble patterns run across the countertop and walls, punctuated by chrome fixtures and geometric lighting. A glass shower enclosure sits at the far end. Large windows and potted plants complete the space with organic detail.
Courtyard
Vines climb the metal pergola above a paved courtyard filled with outdoor seating and greenery. A red metal chair adds a focal point near the brick wall, while a grill station stands ready nearby. Trees and plants line the edge, softening the boundaries of the space. Natural light filters through the overhead structure, casting grid-like shadows below.
