First floor shows a great room, dining, kitchen with pantry, living room, office, mud room, garage, and covered porch entry with staircase access.
Floor Plan
The upper level shows four bedrooms, a loft, a laundry, and two full baths arranged around a central staircase.
Floor Plan
The basement level includes a spacious family room, a fifth bedroom, a wet bar with shelving, a playroom, and a mechanical room. The staircase connects to the upper floors, with a linen closet and full bath rounding out the layout.
Pro Tip: A wet bar adjacent to the family room is a smart move for basement entertaining, keeping guests in one zone rather than sending them upstairs. If you’re finishing this space later, rough-in the plumbing during initial construction. It costs far less than retrofitting pipes after the walls are closed.
Taupe Siding and Black Trim Give This Backyard Elevation Real Presence
Horizontal lap siding in warm taupe keeps the exterior grounded while black window frames add contrast without competing. The sliding glass door opens directly onto a concrete patio with outdoor seating, and flanking wall lanterns frame the entry point cleanly. Lavender plantings soften the fence line nicely.
Try This: Swap those standard wall lanterns for a motion-sensor version with the same aesthetic. You get security lighting without running a separate fixture, and the look stays consistent with the rest of the exterior hardware.
Moving into the main living area reveals how the interior finishes pull the whole scheme together.
Round Mirror and Sideboard Turn a Plain Wall Into the Room’s Focal Point
The round mirror with its dark metal frame does a lot of work here, reflecting the TV wall back across the room and doubling the visual depth. Below it, a taupe sideboard with brass-toned pulls keeps things grounded. Light wood flooring runs throughout, tying the coffee table and seating into one cohesive zone.
Warm Wood and Linen Tones Make This Dining Room Feel Genuinely Livable
Boucle chairs and a square wood table anchor the space, while Roman shades layer with floor-length linen drapes for real depth.
Quick Fix: Roman shades paired with floor-length drapes give you two levels of light control without committing to blackout curtains. If the room gets harsh afternoon glare, pull the shades down and leave the drapes open so natural light still filters through at the sides.
Sage Island Base and Glass Pendants Keep This Kitchen Grounded and Light
Olive-toned island base paired with white shaker cabinets and a gray subway tile backsplash. Three glass dome pendants hang low over the quartz countertop.
In The Details: Pendant lights hung too high lose their impact over an island. Dropping them so the bottom of the shade sits roughly 30 to 36 inches above the counter surface keeps the light focused where you’re actually working. These three are positioned well for both task lighting and visual weight.
Botanical Prints and a Lantern Pendant Anchor This Bedroom’s Quiet Elegance
Soft gray walls meet textured wallpaper behind the bed, giving the room depth without pattern overload. Two framed botanical drawings sit centered between windows, doing more compositional work than most art arrangements manage. The wood dresser and cane chair pull the palette warmer. Natural light catches the layered bedding and makes the whole room feel genuinely restful.
Why That Tray Ceiling Changes the Whole Room
Tray ceilings add visual height without raising actual square footage, and this one keeps its detailing minimal enough that it doesn’t compete with the pendant. The lantern-style fixture sits low enough to feel intentional rather than just centered and forgotten. If you’re working with a similar ceiling profile, keeping the fixture trim and dark-finished tends to read cleaner than something oversized and ornate.
Frameless Glass and Brushed Gold Hardware Keep This Shower Feeling Open
Frameless glass panels with brushed gold hardware frame a marble-tiled shower that earns its square footage. Recessed ceiling lighting inside the enclosure keeps it from feeling like a cave.
Common Mistake: Frameless shower doors look clean but collect water spots faster than framed versions because there’s no metal channel to redirect runoff. A quick daily squeegee after use does more for long-term clarity than any cleaning spray. Don’t skip sealing the stone walls, either, or grout discoloration becomes a permanent problem.
Built-In Cabinetry and an L-Shaped Desk Make This Home Office Actually Work
Sage green cabinetry wraps the room on two sides, giving the desk plenty of surface without crowding the space. Roman shades let in a strip of natural light at the bottom while keeping glare off the monitor. Good storage decisions early mean you won’t be stacking papers on the floor later.
- Mount a monitor arm instead of a stand to reclaim desk depth for actual work
- Run a cable channel through the desktop so cords don’t pool near the drawers
- Keep one cabinet section open for frequently grabbed items, so the doors aren’t constantly swinging
