As far as unique outdoor living spaces go, this entire backyard makeover at Manor Country Club in Rockville, Maryland has the bases covered. A sandstone patio, AZEK-covered deck, cedar pergola, and hot tub were added to make this Montgomery County home stand out. The basement was also renovated and given a stone fireplace.
Situated on Manor's 18th tee box, the patio and pavilion feature open views, low-maintenance plantings, and all of the amenities one needs for entertaining. The integrated hot tub is integrated into the AZEK decking for easy and safe access. We also paved the driveway and laid stone for the front path.
Other features
Hot tub that is half under the awning and half exposed to the sky for excellent stargazing.
Integrated porch lighting
Stone flower boxes built into the multi-tiered patio
Materials
AZEK/TimberTech decking
Sandstone patio blocks
Cedar wood

2011 NARI CAPITAL COTY MERIT AWARD WINNER; 2012 QUALIFIED REMODELER MASTER DESIGN AWARD
This 1950 brick colonial featured a floor plan typical of homes of that era--small boxy rooms, each separated by four walls. The young couple who owned the home loved its potential, but needed more space.
The main goal of this project was to create a seamless and open floor plan on the first floor, adding a family room and enlarging the kitchen. A master bedroom and bathroom suite were planned to make better use of the second level. To accomplish these goals, a 20’ x 20’ two-story addition was designed by Michael Nash Design, Build & Homes.
The new expanded kitchen and family room features limestone floors, a new gas fireplace surrounded with built-ins and glass stone hearth to complement the kitchen countertops and backsplash. Use of espresso colored cabinetry topped by a light granite countertop with brown veins running through it is one of the decorative touches that make this project stunning. The large middle island which consists of a second sink, wine chiller and seating space is another bonus point of this kitchen. Commercial quality appliances assure gourmet cooking at its finest. Large first floor windows face the home’s new flagstone patio, which can be accessed via a French door.
The second floor consists of the master bedroom with a sitting area , French doors leading into a French balcony facing back yard, double-sided stoned gas fireplace (between the bedroom and master bath) and a cathedral ceiling. The master bathroom features a large steam shower, body sprays and rain shower, a large double person Jacuzzi, tumbled marble floor and wall tiles with accents. The use of wide plank exotic tiger wood has beautified this master suite.
Keeping the homeowners’ contemporary style in mind and achieving their wishes has transformed this old 1950 colonial into a fully functional 21st Century dream home.

Slate grey was used to provide contrast between the island and the bookcase with the rest of the kitchen. We added a custom pot rack over the oven hood, pot filler for convenience, and a custom stainless steel black splash behind the range for clean-ability. The island was designed as a full prep space: one portion of the island is marble for baking, and the other portion is a wood chopping block. A knife slot in the island was added for quick and easy access, with a prep sink with colander nearby.

Tiered block walls allow colorful plantings and stairs give access to upper play yard.

Completely transformed bathroom. Removed the over scaled corner tub that was two steps up. Added a make-up sitting area with a drawer with a receptacle located in the back. Added a roll-in shower for easy accessibility and attractive grab bars.

Needing a tranquil getaway? This bathroom is just that - with matte glass mosaics in the best beachy blue tones, fresh white cabinetry, wood plank tile, flat pebble tile for the shower floor, and amazing amenities including heated floors, a heated towel rack and natural light galore, why would you ever leave? What’s a great master bath without plenty of storage? In addition to the great cabinets, we have handy niches everywhere you could possibly need one, and with all of these great details, could you even tell that this bathroom is fully accessible? That’s right, we’ve got a barrier free shower, grab bars, and plenty of floor space to maneuver, around it all!

This butlers pantry was conceptualized, designed, built, and installed by Rowlette Design & Installation. It features a brick backsplash, butcher block countertop, open shelving supported by metal screw pipes, wine cooler and cabinetry, and a library ladder for easy access to hard-to-reach items. The room is converted from a small laundry room off a larger kitchen and makes use of all space available.

New french doors gives light and easy access to the deck space. Removing two walls and exposing the old brick chimney made for a great open space kitchen worthy of this little house! An eclectic mixture of quartz and butcher block counter tops, industrial lighting, brick and an exposed beam gives this space great interest.
