Valerie Wilcox This new Master Suite, built over the main floor addition under phase 1, was stepped up slightly to allow for increased ceiling height on the main floor. As such, the ceilings here were also pushed up to allow for greater height and the feeling of added space.

How about that for an outdoor hangout area?? Custom designed by Chuck Oliver and meticulously custom built by award winning builder, Rusty Golden (Le Jardin Development), this impeccable Villa Style has it all. Doors has been faux finished to look antique, walls glazed to reflect light, multiple arched clad doors welcome Mother Nature and are open to front and rear courtyards creating a fantastic party atmosphere. Beautiful chandeliers, heart pine wood floors and multiple exotic stone and marble finishes come together to create an Italian ambience you will not forget! Recent addition of a ONE OF A KIND private master (her) dressing and closet spaces will make you want to play dress up every day! Oversized master suite and separate office are tucked away and private, yet share the beauty of the well appointed rear patio and courtyards, lush with flowers and outdoor entertaining areas. Downstairs the home also features an additional full guest suite overlooking the front courtyards and fountain areas. The home shares two upstairs areas, 3 bedrooms, 2 baths and a den area on one side and the other is a huge game room that currently serves as a young boys "man cave". This area has recently been completed and features custom closets and ship lap walls. Custom decorative iron door open to an incredible wine room with Italian countryside paintings al fresco. A tasting area allows for guests to join in the "choosing and trying"! The outdoor kitchen was recently built and features top of the line stainless appliances, beautiful wood and steel details and all stainless drawers and storage areas. The garage is a "car mans" dream; clean, sleek and outfitted for a guys hang out area. An exterior half bath is adjacent to the garage and outdoor entertaining area, making it "pool ready"! Whole house generator is ready to run your hurricane parties, keeping friends and family happy while assuring your wine room never looses its cool! BELLISSIMO!

Second floor hall with skylight for natural lighting of the architectural features. Staircase, hardwood floors, baseboards, casings and custom millwork are all illuminated by the natural lighting.

The Ascension - Super Ranch on Acreage in Ridgefield Washington by Cascade West Development Inc. for the Clark County Parade of Homes 2016. As soon as you pass under the timber framed entry and through the custom 8ft tall double-doors you’re immersed in a landscape of high ceilings, sharp clean lines, soft light and sophisticated trim. The expansive foyer you’re standing in offers a coffered ceiling of 12ft and immediate access to the central stairwell. Procession to the Great Room reveals a wall of light accompanied by every angle of lush forest scenery. Overhead a series of exposed beams invite you to cross the room toward the enchanting, tree-filled windows. In the distance a coffered-box-beam ceiling rests above a dining area glowing with light, flanked by double islands and a wrap-around kitchen, they make every meal at home inclusive. The kitchen is composed to entertain and promote all types of social activity; large work areas, ubiquitous storage and very few walls allow any number of people, large or small, to create or consume comfortably. An integrated outdoor living space, with it’s large fireplace, formidable cooking area and built-in BBQ, acts as an extension of the Great Room further blurring the line between fabricated and organic settings.
