The epitome of luxury living - an exquisite apartment that exudes unparalleled elegance and sophistication. This stunning residence showcases the masterful work of a visionary designer, Tamar Rand, where every element has been meticulously crafted to create an upscale haven unlike any other. Upon stepping into this grand abode, you are immediately greeted by a traditional ambiance with a modern twist. Tamar Rand has ingeniously utilized every inch of space, transforming it into a seamless blend of modern traditionalism. The entrance floor boasts a charming foyer and hallway that beckon you into the heart of the home. The kitchen, living room, and dining room converge into an open space, exuding a sense of freedom and fluidity. The dining table, an exquisite masterpiece, was born from the collaboration between a skilled carpenter and a visionary glass artist. This unique piece features a delicate balance of glass and intricate woodwork, marrying openness with the essence of traditional style. Among the living quarters are two inviting bedrooms, each meticulously designed to offer comfort and luxury. The master bedroom is accompanied by a lavish bathroom that complements the overall opulence of the apartment. The main bathroom, shared by all, showcases Tamar’s attention to detail in every aspect of the home. One of the most captivating features of this apartment lies below, in the basement, which has been transformed into a magical space. Descending the majestic staircase into the basement, you are greeted by a glamorous light fixture that dazzles like precious jewels, adding an extra touch of luxury to the space. This basement feels nothing like a typical underground area; it is a realm of wonder and imagination brought to life. By utilizing the basement's potential, Tamar has created two expansive play areas, ensuring that fun and excitement abound in every corner. A cleverly installed artificial skylight, adorned with a breathtaking Barrisol stretched ceiling, mimics the vast expanse of the sky, granting an airy and open atmosphere to this lower level. In addition to the play areas, the basement also houses a study and two additional bedrooms, each providing the utmost comfort and privacy. Tamar’s ingenuity has transformed this space into a flourishing hub of leisure and creativity. The apartment's allure lies not only in its sumptuous aesthetics but also in the thoughtfulness that went into optimizing every aspect of its design. A hidden laundry closet in the hallway perfectly exemplifies this philosophy, combining functionality and aesthetics to create an unobtrusive yet efficient space for laundry needs. This apartment is a true testament to the prowess of Tamar, whose custom furniture and meticulous eye for detail have transformed a mere shell into a work of art. This home stands as a true masterpiece, celebrating the beauty of tradition while embracing the comforts of modernity.

To the manor born… or at least it will feel like it in this elegant yet easygoing French Country home designed by Visbeen Architects with a busy family who wants the best of the past and the present in mind. Drawn from both French and English traditional architecture, this two-story 5,463-square-foot home is a pleasing and timeless blend of two perennially popular styles. Driving up the circular driveway, the home’s front façade impresses with its distinctive details, including a covered porch, iron and stone accents, a roofline with multiple peaks, large windows and its central turret capping two bay windows. The back is no less eye-catching, with a series of large central windows on all three floors overlooking the backyard, two private balconies and both a covered second-floor screen porch and an open-air main-level patio perfect for al fresco entertaining. There’s magic on the inside too. The expansive 2,900-square-foot main level revolves around a welcoming two-story foyer with a grand curved staircase that leads into the rest of the luxurious yet not excessive floor plan. Highlights of the public spaces on the left include a spacious two-story light-filled living room with a wall of windows overlooking the backyard and a fireplace, an adjacent dining room perfect for entertaining with its own deck, and a open-plan kitchen with central island, convenient home management area and walk-in pantry. A nearby screened porch is the perfect place for enjoying outdoors meals bug-free. Private rooms are concentrated on the first-floor’s right side, with a secluded master suite that includes spa-like bath with his and her vanities and a large tub as well as a private balcony, large walk-in closet and secluded nearby study/office. Upstairs, another 1,100 square feet of living space is designed with family living in mind, including two bedrooms, each with private bath and large closet, and a convenient kids study with peaked ceiling overlooking the street. The central circular staircase leads to another 1,800 square-feet in the lower level, with a large family room with kitchen /bar, a guest bedroom suite, a handy exercise area and access to a nearby covered patio.

The challenge for this garden was the side entrance to the house. We needed to make it clear which way to go and make the journey to the front door interesting and welcoming. This meant there had to be something happening in the garden year round. Foliage plays a big role in this garden! The pathways were designed to provide a gracious entrance and be wide enough in some spaces to allow for neighbors to gather outside the home office balcony. The backyard needed to accommodate the trampoline, food gardening, outdoor dining and entertaining. Who knew a trampoline could function as a room divider?! The raised beds are at a comfortable height and depth for easy tending and keeping pets out. The result is the whole family can share the yard yet every function has a zone of it's own. And, you always know what season it is!
