When these homeowners want a "safe living environment for their parents, they built this addition for them with an accessible bathroom and a stackable washer and dryer, bedroom and a small family room with accessible exit.

This beautiful French Provincial home is set on 10 acres, nestled perfectly in the oak trees. The original home was built in 1974 and had two large additions added; a great room in 1990 and a main floor master suite in 2001. This was my dream project: a full gut renovation of the entire 4,300 square foot home! I contracted the project myself, and we finished the interior remodel in just six months. The exterior received complete attention as well. The 1970s mottled brown brick went white to completely transform the look from dated to classic French. Inside, walls were removed and doorways widened to create an open floor plan that functions so well for everyday living as well as entertaining. The white walls and white trim make everything new, fresh and bright. It is so rewarding to see something old transformed into something new, more beautiful and more functional.

The shower is appointed with travertine tile and edging, and enclosed with custom frameless glass front panels and door. Then this well-appointed room was finished with a slipper style tub. In an effort to bring sound throughout the house, an RA, wireless radio system was installed with separate controls in each room. This was an afterthought of the clients, thus the use of wireless technology. Two spaces originally dedicated to smaller bedrooms, were converted into a state-of-the-art workout room replete with mirrors surrounding the walls. And a custom office was constructed in the other. The office, build in a "L" shape received the same cabinetry with places for computer, fax, etc., as the rest of the house and the closet received custom storage units.

The handicap-accessible guest bath includes custom finishes and zero-entry shower. The wall tile and floor tile are laid in continuous pattern to visually open the space. A linear shower drain with tile inlay, and gray subway tile accent wall add further interest to the modern aesthetic.

If the exterior of a house is its face the interior is its heart. The house designed in the hacienda style was missing the matching interior. We created a wonderful combination of Spanish color scheme and materials with amazing distressed wood rustic vanity and wrought iron fixtures. The floors are made of 4 different sized chiseled edge travertine and the wall tiles are 4"x8" travertine subway tiles. A full sized exterior shower system made out of copper is installed out the exterior of the tile to act as a center piece for the shower. The huge double sink reclaimed wood vanity with matching mirrors and light fixtures are there to provide the "old world" look and feel. Notice there is no dam for the shower pan, the shower is a step down, by that design you eliminate the need for the nuisance of having a step up acting as a dam. Photography: R / G Photography

When it’s time to update the master bath, don’t settle for anything less than WOW. From the crushed glass accent tile to the custom radius glass shower enclosure, this bath is a much deserved luxury for every-day use. Removal of an existing steam shower and oversized tub allowed for a more open and spacious design incorporating optimal water views. The richness of the dark cabinetry contrasts with the lightly textured tile. Custom designed front lift storage cabinet allows easy access to grooming supplies. Blown glass light fixtures provide a beautiful sparkle to the space. Relax in the corner whirlpool tub and just watch the world go by. Interior Designer: Wanda Pfeiffer Photo credit: Naples Kenny
