Overview
Materials & Finishes
Kitchen
Designed to balance everyday functionality with a refined aesthetic, the kitchen centers on Marbella White countertops fabricated by Euro Stone Craft with an upgraded ogee edge profile and chip minimizer detail — a thoughtful touch that preserves the stone's crisp lines over time. A custom tile backsplash from Mosaic Tile adds artisan character to the space, while a stainless steel sink (MSS3121C) paired with a coordinating faucet (7294SRS) from Build.com keeps the workspace streamlined and cohesive. A garbage disposal with air switch rounds out the sink suite with clean, integrated convenience. Overhead, pendant lighting fixtures in a warm brown finish (Model #1935-H) cast the space in an inviting glow that anchors the room's design from above.
Addition Living Space
The new living space is grounded by custom-stained hardwood flooring throughout, installed by Derr Flooring Co. — a foundation that brings warmth and continuity to the addition. A ceiling fan (Model #19965) provides year-round comfort and easy air circulation, keeping the space as livable as it is beautiful.
Entry
The entry makes a quiet, confident first impression with Aqua Grigio matte porcelain tile from The Tile Shop, applied to both the walls and floor in a 12x24-inch format. The matte finish and cool-toned palette set a grounded, sophisticated tone that transitions naturally into the home's interior.
Exterior
The home's exterior is finished with white vinyl windows and doors, each fitted with full screens, white hardware, and decorative grill patterns that lend traditional character to the façade. A sliding screen door with satin nickel hardware offers a subtle contrast in finish, adding a polished detail at the threshold. Certainteed Slate Gray architectural shingles complete the exterior envelope, providing a durable, dimensional roofline that ties the addition seamlessly to the existing home.
