The owners of this beautiful home in Montlake desperately needed more space for their growing family. We gave them the breathing room they craved by putting an addition on the back of the house that extended the square footage across all three floors (basement, main floor and second floor). This allowed for a more spacious kitchen that opens to the backyard and offers plenty of natural light. We refreshed the existing cabinets with new paint and added more storage with built-in cabinets and a casual dining area with integrated bench seating. We also reconfigured the entire second floor to allow ample space for an airy master suite, plus two more bedrooms and a shared bathroom. In the basement, we lowered the floor to increase the ceiling height, and transformed it into a comfortable space for entertaining friends or relaxing with the family. The remodeled basement now includes a family media room with plenty of built-ins, a wet bar, a guest bedroom, and a bathroom.

You'll find plenty of space to hang your robe in the 15-foot walk in closet complete with floor-to-ceiling custom built-ins. The suite maintains an aura of romance, creating a sense of delicacy without an ounce of fussiness.

The Iris is a three-bedroom home that offers enormous flexibility in design alongside cottage comfort and charm. In true cottage-style fashion, a large front porch provides a warm welcome to neighbors and friends and also serves as a great spot to relax and unwind at the beginning or end of a day. The warmth and comfort continues inside with natural light pouring in through oversized windows onto beautiful hardwood floors. Topping it off, cozy built-ins are employed throughout the home to provide stylish and useful storage, a place to curl up with a book, or a showcase for family treasures.

This stunning home is a combination of the best of traditional styling with clean and modern design, creating a look that will be as fresh tomorrow as it is today. Traditional white painted cabinetry in the kitchen, combined with the slab backsplash, a simpler door style and crown moldings with straight lines add a sleek, non-fussy style. An architectural hood with polished brass accents and stainless steel appliances dress up this painted kitchen for upscale, contemporary appeal. The kitchen islands offers a notable color contrast with their rich, dark, gray finish. The stunning bar area is the entertaining hub of the home. The second bar allows the homeowners an area for their guests to hang out and keeps them out of the main work zone. The family room used to be shut off from the kitchen. Opening up the wall between the two rooms allows for the function of modern living. The room was full of built ins that were removed to give the clean esthetic the homeowners wanted. It was a joy to redesign the fireplace to give it the contemporary feel they longed for. Their used to be a large angled wall in the kitchen (the wall the double oven and refrigerator are on) by straightening that out, the homeowners gained better function in the kitchen as well as allowing for the first floor laundry to now double as a much needed mudroom room as well.

This sophisticated home office balances functionality with a timeless aesthetic. Lime-washed walls create a warm backdrop for the natural wood built-ins and classic furnishings. A clay velvet desk chair pairs beautifully with the antique-style writing desk, while a floral-patterned armchair offers a cozy spot for reading. Layered decor on the shelves adds personality and charm, and a plush rug anchors the space, making it both practical and inspiring—a perfect place to work or reflect.
