Recalling fond memories of traditional shingle style homes, a young couple planning their first and last home in which to raise their family, wanted a warm inviting home with formal elements and durable finishes to tolerate an active lifestyle with pets and growing children. Elaborate trim creates the formal setting they love, combined with an open plan and casual furnishings to make guests feel at ease.

Custom features abound, from a retractable mirror concealing a flat screen TV over the fireplace in the great room, to special cabinetry storage features— numerous tailored elements make this home a pleasure to live in.
