A successful executive came to us with her vision for a custom home in a gated horse-country community.  She wanted a home which would provide privacy in her busy life, welcoming spaces for the family to gather and areas to meet each family member's needs.

​

Eschewing formal living and dining rooms for more comfortable spaces, the client chose instead a family room with a high ceiling, custom timber frame beams with plaster inlays, and warm, faux finished walls.  The large adjacent kitchen provides multiple seating areas, including a banquette for watching TV, two marble topped islands to gather around and a dining area with a vaulted ceiling overlooking the 45 foot pool and pool house.  The kitchen includes appliances by Wolfe, Subzero and Miele and a large butler's pantry.  A powder room on this level features a mosaic marble floor, antique vanity, gold Sherle Wagner fixtures and a Swarovski crystal door knob.  The lower level contains an additional entertainment area with custom Italian walnut cabinets and bar, a pool table area, multiple TVs and gathering area.  Family and guests can also enjoy an exercise room, complemented by a spa bath featuring a body spray and steam shower and more custom cabinetry.

​

The owner's suite is a peaceful retreat which includes a fireplace, vaulted ceiling, spacious closet/dressing room and luxurious bath with a laser cut marble, mosaic inset in the shower. It shares an adjoining windowed sunroom with a private suite for the client's mother.  This nearly self-contained suite includes a living room with a fireplace, a bedroom and a bar area.

​

The sons' rooms reflect their unique personalities and interests.  One room has a blue and white beach theme with wood paneling and large, industrial look shower.  The other contains a cozy upper loft which is accessed by a ladder.  The home also includes a private space which the boys share for video games.  Even guests are very comfortably accommodated in a suite which has a bedroom, private sitting room and bathroom.  Custom doors and unique antique doors, cabinetry and fixtures are located throughout the home.
