This freshly renovated Arlington home is full of architectural details, and they shine beautifully in the staircase that climbs through all four levels. Perfectly spaced square balusters and traditionally elegant newels give the piece a sturdy, timeless presence. The soft contrast between warm oak elements and crisp white painted balusters brings both natural warmth and an airy lightness to the stairway.
Every element echoes the thoughtful design choices throughout the home. Oak treads and handrails mirror the gorgeous hardwood floors below, while white vertical balusters complement the trim that flows from room to room. The result is a staircase that unifies the entire home with classic simplicity and elegance.
