"Modern" living tends to have more open concept spaces. The Master Bedroom is a bit strange with access to the two staircases.

The question is do you prefer a more open plan? Not everyone does. If so, the above suggestions might work for you. As it is, the plan looks fairly traditional. Also wondering if the access from the master bedroom to the second stairway if through a closet. If so, it's a little odd.

1st floor: reconfigure kitchen to eliminate the peninsula & replace with an island. Eliminate wall between kitchen & family room. These two changes would help give a more open feeling.

Add all glass double French doors between the living & sun rooms. This would give a better traffic flow as well as bringing more light into the living room.

Great suggestions! Thank you. The master is accessible through a hallway from either stairwell.

Just wondering if you've made any headway with you remodel?

Create better sight lines by eliminating wall between kitchen and family room. Depending upon your lifestyle, rearrangement of the kitchen to open it to the dining room, with an island between the two rooms would be preferable. Upstairs, I’d rearrange the right side bath so that it became a private bath for the large bedroom on the right, since it’s only usable by that room. No need for additional hallway! All that extra room could be converted into bed and bath space. I don’t see washer and dryer locations anywhere on this plan, yet they should definitely be located upstairs, with selective rearrangement of the upstairs configuration this could be easily done.

Thanks everyone! Lynne - we haven't yet started but are working with Eileen Kollias Design and are very excited to begin.
