An abundance of living space is only part of the appeal of this traditional French county home. Strong architectural elements and a lavish interior design, including cathedral-arched beamed ceilings, hand-scraped and French bleed-edged walnut floors, faux finished ceilings, and custom tile inlays add to the home's charm.
This home features heated floors in the basement, a mirrored flat screen television in the kitchen/family room, an expansive master closet, and a large laundry/crafts room with Romeo & Juliet balcony to the front yard.
The gourmet kitchen features a custom range hood in limestone, inspired by Romanesque architecture, a custom panel French armoire refrigerator, and a 12 foot antiqued granite island.
Every child needs his or her personal space, offered via a large secret kids room and a hidden passageway between the kids' bedrooms.
A 1,000 square foot concrete sport court under the garage creates a fun environment for staying active year-round. The fun continues in the sunken media area featuring a game room, 110-inch screen, and 14-foot granite bar.

Are those barstools blue and where can I purchase them? »
Blue Bridge Cabinetry and Design Just a guess here, but I'd say it's 36" high. Seems to be the same height as the countertops, and that's standard countertop height.
Very theatrical space. Vertically and otherwise.
A fireplace in the kitchen can be really wonderful.
Do you guys spend much time in the kitchen? Do you cook much? For family? Or for guests mostly?
This is likely a two-sided fireplace shared with a keeping room or family room.
