welcome HOME
ENTRY
foyer
28’ x 10’ The double doors of this home swing open to a sight of grandeur: The mahogany hue of dark wood envelops the entry foyer, as it is found in the dramatic wainscoting on the staircase, in the intricate carving on the newel post and in the gleaming hardwood floor. From this luxurious perch, one can retreat to the morning room, dining room or kitchen.
LIBRARY
24’ x 16’ With a gorgeous wall of bay windows to let the sun shine in, the sitting area of the library is perfection. Hardwood floors and rich molding with dentil crown add touches of elegance, while ample dimensions allow for some comfy chairs and a couch or two. Two impressive pocket doors lead from the foyer to this space, providing plenty of privacy while still ensuring that this room remains a vital part of the rest of the home.
LIBRARY nook
12’ x 8’ Any property that aspires to luxury must feature a formal library, as does this one. Its wood paneling is an exquisite touch; it reaches up to the 10-foot ceiling height, creating a sense of serenity for occupants who want to curl up with a good book. A wall of coordinating built-in bookshelves, topped with dentil molding, provide character, as well as space for stocking bestsellers and first editions. To enhance the ambience, one can carefully arrange the can lights and use the audio control to manage speakers that are discretely fitted into the ceiling.
SITTING
room
A sitting room, historically, was never massive, but instead was an area that felt like an intimate spot for a card game or a chat between guests. Since this Victorian home is designed in the historic fashion, this room feels as though it would have 150 years ago, but with some crucial updates. It features hardwood floors, crown molding and decorative chandelier that are in keeping with history, yet it includes in-ceiling speakers and can lights in a nod to modernity.
11’ x 12’
MORNING
room
15’ x 10’ One of the prettiest rooms of any Victorian home is the morning room, which was based on the traditional Victorian concept of a space used to entertain guests during the day. This modern home’s morning room, enclosed with wooden pocket doors, is the very definition of historic sophistication. Connected to the sitting room, it features stained-glass in the bay windows as well as a fireplace with a wooden mantel, decorative tile surround and an impressive mirror flanked by two sconces. Conveniently adjacent to the sitting room, its doors can be kept open for small gatherings.
DINING room It’s easy to make an entrance into this formal dining room, because its beauty simply compels everyone to walk in and enjoy its aesthetic. Not many modern homes offer the embellishment of a fireplace in the dining room, but this one does – complete with decorative tile surround to heighten the room’s inherent refinement. There’s nothing casual about this space, which includes extensive crown molding and a chandelier to create serene lighting. This dining room conveniently opens onto the butler’s pantry, which adds to the field of operations for every dining occasion. The privacy of the pantry allows for all culinary duties to be subtly performed so that one can create a seamless dining experience.
17’ x 15’
BUTLERS
pantry

All of these features give this classic pantry the newest of twists. This well-lit space allows for a host to easily see the shelves lined with china and glass, as well as the drawers filled with dish towels and other accoutrements. It all adds up to a seamless dining experience.
FAMILY
room
23’ x 20’ There’s nothing like an expansive family room when it comes to creating the heart of a home. Its space allows for an abundance of seating, which creates a convivial vibe. This room is so large that it can be divided into intimate seating groups, a method often employed by interior designers to break up the space and make it feel cozier. And who can deny the natural beauty of a stacked stone fireplace? This one makes the space incredibly warm and inviting. The outdoor landscaping and swimming pool can be seen through the French doors, making for a beautiful view and ease of access to the patio. Built-in bookcases provide storage for books and games, and the vintage-style chandelier bathes the room in a warm glow.
KITCHEN
& kitchen nook
24’ x 22’ This gourmet kitchen, flooded with natural light, will easily capture your imagination as you dream of planning the next dinner party or Saturday brunch. The ample space on the granite countertops allows for every appliance imaginable to be on hand, from the iconic KitchenAid stand mixer to the Breville Sous Chef food processor. Then there are the custom cherry cabinets with walnut finish, above and below the counters, whose presence will suit the most sophisticated chef ’s every need. And if there is more than one chef? No worries. This kitchen is equipped with a farmhouse sink under three large windows, as well as another sink in the oversized island, so that no one trips over toes as the meals get under way. A Sub-Zero refrigerator/ freezer offers all of the food storage one might require, whether it is needed to store made-ahead meals for busy weeknights or to stock up on salmon and steak for that big Friday night dinner party. Weekend mornings can get busy, as any home chef knows: The requests for pancakes, omelets and French toast pour in as the household awakens. No problem. This kitchen’s Thermador four-burner with grill and griddle is the hero of this kitchen, chugging away like a short-order cook. Its griddle will make pancakes grow ever-fluffier and its gas burners fry eggs to the perfect consistency. This is simply the kitchen for pleasing the pickiest of eaters. Hosting a book-club brunch?

The vanity features a wide expanse of space – perfect for showcasing a vase of fresh-cut flowers arranged from this home’s extensive grounds. Naturally, this master bathroom includes the architectural benefits of a separate closet toilet and a dedicated shower and bathtub. The roomy, jetted soak tub is surrounded by glossy-white subway tiles and a row of three windows to let the sunlight stream in. The oversize shower, encased in decorative stone tile and molding, includes a bench and two built-in soap dishes and wall alcoves for toiletries. And, let’s face it, the larger the closet, the happier the life – it simply imbues one’s daily routine with a sense of well-being that is slightly inexplicable, yet immediately welcome. A wealth of shelves to suit the most inveterate of handbag collectors is married to a multitude of shallow drawers for storing t-shirts and cashmere sweaters. It’s like having a fashion atelier in one’s bedroom.
