Home built by JMA (Jim Murphy and Associates); designed by Hart Howerton. Photo credit: Tim Maloney, Technical Imagery Studios.
Extraordinary impressions of the old world were created in this Tuscan-style home. Stucco exterior walls and wrought iron fixtures give a handmade, rustic look that exemplifies the architectural style. The plaster interior walls, artfully crafted, embrace the home's romance with the past. Their surface is a blend of colors created on site with a wax patina applied to some of the walls. The remarkable feeling of elegant antiquity is aided by the home's floors, which were created from reclaimed wood. Our carpenters gave the large beams in the great room and kitchen a rustic radiance through modern distressing techniques.

dimensions of this room - It is my dream to have a family room like this, I do love it. Warm and cozy yet roomy! This is a great accomplishment. What are the dimensions of this room? We are building a home and are trying to find a comfortable yet roomy family room size. Any suggestions would be greately appreciated. Thanks for your help :)

This is a beautiful great room, love the stove hood and side cirulation behind kitchen. But this roof doesn't accommodate a very wide outside area, nor a 2nd level walkway.
