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.

Paint color - Is Kilim Beige the color on all of the wall area? »
Floor manufacturer & color - I'm looking for more detailed information on the floors. I love this color and it would be perfect for our dark cabinets like in this picture!
Thanks! »

Schrader & Companies The wood floor is a hand scraped Walnut with a french bleed edge. The counter top is a Typhoon Granite Color and is available through Capital Granite in St. Cloud, MN. The island is a custom paint color.
Eutree Wide Plank Flooring Black Walnut is quickly becoming the most popular floor we make. That looks like a mixed width floor. Correct? We just sent an 8" wide floor to NC. joel@eutree.com
Schrader & Companies Please email Anita Sullivan for information on the backsplash. Anita was the interior designer on this project. Anita@anitasdesigns.biz
Dionne Trifiro Hi, I calculated approx 122" long based on the cabinets that I can see.
(1" end panel + 18" cab + 24" DW + 36" sink cab + 24" MW + 18" cab + 1" end panel) and 54" wide (24" cab+ 6" service gap + 24" cab)
Not including overhang (Probably 1" 1/4)
This is only based on an educated guess....

tropitango In another answer the builder put "Typhoon Bordeaux" which is what we just went with in our kitchen. Love it. Slabs have lots of variation though, so choose your slab in person if you can.
zap2636 Even if not made, if the designer is still in business, they may make similar lights. Can you tell me please who the designer, or company is, that makes this light?
Schrader & Companies We found it in the local World Market store but unfortunately the store has closed so I could not tell you if it is still available.
I have a 4 by 8 island in my kitchen. It looks like this but my granite is straight. Should I do a double uneven sink or a square sink that is in the picture? »
bjb1 I don't think the shape of the sink is an essential choice. It just needs to be beautiful when people are overlooking it as in this island.
Consider a second shallow bowl for "drying" dishes. It keeps the dishes out of sight.

sbj34678 I have several friends with the double uneven sink. They've all decided they like the functionality of my sink better. Mine is a single large basin.
Kelly Porter This is a close call, so hopefully we'll hear from the designer. It could be a stain, but I think they may be painted with a deep brown, similar to Branchport Brown HC-72 by Benjamin Moore.
island - My husband adores your island! Would you mind sharing the dimensions of the island and the granite overhang if possible? Our island is 4 by 8. Thank you in advance for your help! »
Fireplace - The stone fireplace is gorgeous. What are the dimensions? Very interested in knowing the length of the fireplace and how High the hearth is. Thanks »
