Other than diamonds, rubies, and sapphires, granite is the hardest natural stone. Granite is the preferred stone for exterior or interior as it is known for its strength and resistance to the elements.

We shared the Living Room of this Highlands home with you last week, and now it is time for the Foyer and Dining Room. As you recall, we flipped the Living and Dining Rooms to make a better flow for entertaining. The Foyer is a large space so we added a sleek console with a marble top and flanked it with two shaped chairs that can also serve as dining chairs. We added a lovely hand knotted rug at the double front door that sets the color palette for the entire Main Floor. In the Dining Room, we went with a 54″ round table with a leaf. We updated the fireplace surround with a smokey carrara marble while retaining the original mantle. We added marble consoles in the recessed areas flanking the fireplace for display. My favorite piece in the room is the china hutch with antiqued glass back and leather clad drawers. There is a Sunroom off of the Dining Room that also serves as an Office. For privacy, we added functioning drapery panels that can easily hide things when entertaining. For a bit of drama, we painted the walls Sherwin Williams’ Moth Wing (SW9174). We wanted to preserve the original features of these spaces – rich hardwood floors, antique lighting, and ornate mantle – while updating the furnishings in both style and function. All of the spaces work well together – whether it is a quiet night at home or pre-Derby party. Enjoy!

A 200 SF addition to an existing master bedroom, this master bath and closet has created a much needed spa-like retreat to an already beautiful home. The ceramic tile floor resembles a lighter hardwood to match the rest of the home, but offers the resiliency of tile for the wet conditions of the bathroom. A double floating vanity offers plenty of storage, and four skylights and a large window offer enough natural light that artificial lighting is rarely used during the day. The shower ceramic tile resembles marble, but allows for an easier hard surface to clean and maintain. The brass fixtures allow for a warm contrast to the cool grays, and are a great alternative to the typical stainless steel or brushed aluminum look. The brass also compliments the tile floor, as does the light grey vanity color and the brass color accents in the shower tile and vanity backsplash. A small passage just before the entrance to the bathroom allows for storage space in the form of two built-in white cabinets on either side. A sliding pocket door with privacy glass provides privacy while transferring natural light from one space to the next. The overall feel is inviting and peaceful, with a natural charm brought about by the materials and colors chosen to complete this spa-like retreat.
