Arriving home, one's canines bound across the home's long
length from their favorite spots in the sun, accompanying one
to the kitchen with happy barks. Not to worry about clumps
of grass or dirt clods marring the look of the home's elegant
dark floors; extended to the exterior with tiles, the hardscape
amplifies the home's seamless flow, indoors to out. Fleetwood
doors that separate the backyard from the family room and the
kitchen are rarely closed: everyone in the house will rotate to
their favorite spots throughout the day, and friends are likely
to be astounded with how much time family seems to hang out
together. Traditional details, like moldings and wainscoting,
meld with high ceilings, creating a space that is at once modern
and classic. A spacious pantry is a boon when you live in a home
designed for entertaining. Whether it's friends who come for
brunch and decide to stay for dinner or the posse of children
destined to gather here, it seems that this house will be the place
where everyone congregates.
Count on the covered patio to be commandeered for the kids'
ping-pong championship: they will also take over the large nook
on the top floor for watching movies and playing video games.
is space grants privacy to entertain away from the main
floor's living area while its position near the master bedroom
lends itself to unobtrusive monitoring of activities.
When the rare moments for more formal occasions arise—a
business dinner, cocktails with new colleagues—this home is
equal to the challenge. Whether the committee decides to make
this year's school fundraiser a standing room-only drinks party
or a sit-down dinner, everyone agrees that this home provides
the perfect setting. Community, family, and friends—these are
the indispensable pieces that add up to a place that feels like
home. And not just any home. Yours.
