The Isabella is a beautiful Mediterranean inspired 4 bedroom, 4-1/2 bath 4000 square foot estate. It has a coordinated mixture of stucco, stone and siding on the front facade. The rear elevation features a two tiered deck and private master bedroom deck area. The first floor features a large master bedroom with indirect rope lighting, his and her walk-in closets, a custom double shower and large two-person whirlpool tub with column ceiling details. The vast great room features a stone wood burning/gas fireplace, custom built-in cabinetry, arched column detail and large windows. The formal dining room features our "Signature" illuminated tray ceiling detail. The large professional grade kitchen boasts custom cabinetry, large center island, a breakfast nook, an arched pass through to the dining room and professional grade appliances. The second story features two nicely sized bedrooms, which share one bathroom and a huge guest bedroom with a private bath and office. The Isabella offers an optional finished lower level including a wet bar, wood burning fireplace, garden view windows and home theater. With the finished lower level, the Isabella offers over 6500 square feet of total living space.

A structured urban garden nestled in the heart of Davis Square provides usable outdoor spaces for an active, modern family. Tightly crafted wood screens provide privacy from the bustling streetscape and enclose half of the garden. Lichen-covered granite blocks from Maine form a seat height bench along one edge of a richly patterned brick terrace, and an elderly pear tree shades a fantastic outdoor dining room. Native shrubs, ferns, grasses, and other drought tolerant perennials soften edges and create multi-seasonal interest. An herb and vegetable garden along the north side of the property creates a productive and meaningful use of limited space in an otherwise forgotten part of the garden.

This Hawaii home built on Kauai's south shore is the perfect mix of modern and traditional design. The use of natural wood and white board and batten paneling create the perfect mix of relaxed elegance. The square teak columns speak to the contemporary design, while the reed thatch Pai Pai with natural log columns is a nod at times gone by. The whole home has an indoor-outdoor design that welcomes in the lush tropical landscape and ocean views.

Two-story brick veneer and stone home with clipped gable roof in Oak Ridge NC with 4 bedrooms, three baths and 3,125 square feet.

This estate is a transitional home that blends traditional architectural elements with clean-lined furniture and modern finishes. The fine balance of curved and straight lines results in an uncomplicated design that is both comfortable and relaxing while still sophisticated and refined. The red-brick exterior façade showcases windows that assure plenty of light. Once inside, the foyer features a hexagonal wood pattern with marble inlays and brass borders which opens into a bright and spacious interior with sumptuous living spaces. The neutral silvery grey base colour palette is wonderfully punctuated by variations of bold blue, from powder to robin’s egg, marine and royal. The anything but understated kitchen makes a whimsical impression, featuring marble counters and backsplashes, cherry blossom mosaic tiling, powder blue custom cabinetry and metallic finishes of silver, brass, copper and rose gold. The opulent first-floor powder room with gold-tiled mosaic mural is a visual feast.
