Overview
Materials & Finishes
Kitchen
Designed around a cohesive blend of character and function, the kitchen centers on Hampshire-style custom cabinetry outfitted with carefully coordinated knobs and pulls — including specialized pulls sized for the 9" pullout drawers. At the sink, a Kraus Oletto KPF-2821BB faucet in matte black brings a sleek, modern edge, paired with a garbage disposal for everyday practicality. The countertops were chosen with a deliberate eye toward the overall design aesthetic, while a custom tile backsplash adds texture and visual depth to the cooking zone. Appliances include a 24" microwave drawer, a full range, and a hood insert — a suite that balances everyday utility with a clean, built-in look. Pendant lighting sourced from Build.com completes the space, casting warm task light over the counters and anchoring the kitchen's matte black design thread.
Bedroom 1
A homeowner-selected ceiling fan brings a personal touch to this bedroom, offering both comfort and a tailored sense of style that reflects the owners' vision for the space.
Flooring
The flooring selections work in concert across both levels of the home. Mohawk carpet runs throughout the second-floor addition — including the lounge passthrough area — lending warmth and acoustic softness to the upper level, while LVP and hardwood flooring ground the main level with durability and visual continuity. Professionally coordinated paint selections tie every space together, ensuring a polished, cohesive finish from room to room.
