Photography by John Bessler Top priority for this young couple, having recently leap-frogged from cozy salt box to rambling tudor estate, was the creation of a nursery for their first child (arrival eminent!). Next up? Imbuing the grand scale with intimate charm, in a family-oriented common space to accommodate baby plus their three dogs! Blending his love for all things rustic, and hers for a “glam-sophisticate” splash or two, the result is a beautiful and practical space fit for the whole tribe.

We undertook a comprehensive bathroom remodel to improve the functionality and aesthetics of the space. To create a more open and spacious layout, we expanded the room by 2 feet, shifted the door, and reconfigured the entire layout. We utilized a variety of high-quality materials to create a simple but timeless finish palette, including a custom 96” warm wood-tone custom-made vanity by Draftwood Design, Silestone Cincel Gray quartz countertops, Hexagon Dolomite Bianco floor tiles, and Natural Dolomite Bianco wall tiles.

Double floating vanity with freestanding bainultra tub. There is plenty of space in this master bath! Large format wood plank tile is set in a herringbone pattern. The air bubble tub is a stunning view as the focal point when you enter the room. Full wall featuring glass tile with recessed niches and a large picture window. Photos by Chris Veith

This craftsman beauty is decked out in an array of color. This homes boasts character with the mixture of greys, with the very punchy front door, and a hint of pale blue just under the porch ceilings. This home has a side porch instead of a rear porch. The interior offers open floor plan that is great for entertaining guests. Beautiful custom built cabinetry with a farmhouse style sink. Connie McCoy
