Camel and Gray drove this design with subtle hints of modern farmhouse and natural elements. This warm and cozy living and dining room features the La-Z-Boy Bexley sofas paired with the Haven pushback recliners. The dining set is from the solid wood Litchfield collection by American Drew and coordinating tables from Kincaid and American Drew. I love the way each room flows into the next. Perfect open layout design and another happy client.

A modern twist on tradition! The Beacon Hill sofa has the cozy yet classic look of an iconic slipcover sofa. It’s an alluring design with a deep kick pleat skirt, soft rolled arms and accent pillows that create a vibe that’s in sync with a relaxed lifestyle.

The Home The Polaris is about coming home. The homeowner is a United States Air Force Academy alumnus and his family, who found the perfect location to overlook his alma mater. This home is built for today and tomorrow, with elevator and ADA access. As you enter, sweeping Air Force Academy views greet you. The living area boasts a stunning fireplace wall, a crush-worthy kitchen and pantry and a lovely dining area. The mud room flows seamlessly into the master closet and kitchen. Along the way, a stop at the wine fridge is a nice perk. The office and second bedroom offer plenty of space for work and guests. With a gorgeous fire tray, grill area, infrared heaters and hot tub, the huge deck is a year-round destination. The basement is built to play, but the homeowners can lock off part of it if they wish. The exercise room is decked out in Air Force Academy blue flooring. The fun game room is next to the wet bar and walk-out rec room, with a powder room nearby. Two bedrooms share a bathroom and have their own laundry room. A vault room under the front porch adds additional storage.

A reading nook under the stairs in the family room is a cozy spot to curl up with a book. Expansive views greet you through every tilt & swing triple paned window.
