While the main level focuses on relaxation, the lower level
concentrates on entertainment and activity. Here are more
surprises. Witness the full gym, complete with wet steam and
spa, the theatre and the pool, enclosed by stacking Fleetwood
doors (parents will appreciate the ability to control their children's
access to the water). It does triple-duty: rope it into your exercise
routine; merge it into the rec room, which boasts a full kitchen;
or, push back the doors to integrate it with the downstairs deck.
Jack-and-Jill bedrooms can be used for offices (there's also a
bedroom on the main level, overlooking the street, that vies for
this duty). Guests bunked here will appreciate the ability to come
and go without disturbing the family.
Upstairs, the primary bedroom suite enjoys the family room's
stunning view. "But better," says Knauer. "It's like being in a
treehouse." With two capacious walk-in closets, a double-sided
gas fireplace that can be enjoyed from both the bedroom and
the freestanding tub in the sprawling bathroom's wet room, two
water closets and a clever medicine chest that slides up, hiding
outlets and a plug for your devices, this space rivals the sanc-
tuary bestowed by a multi-star hotel room. The three children's
rooms that complete this floor including another set of Jack-
and-Jill bedrooms. Its shared bath sports the subtle shield motif
that suffuses this home, a nod from the builder to the heroics
of Steve Rogers. Like that mythological character's alter-ego
Captain America, this home grounds a life of family, warmth,
community and joy.
