Beautiful modern bathroom.

Combining an everyday hallway bathroom with the main guest bath/powder room is not an easy task. The hallway bath needs to have a lot of utility with durable materials and functional storage. It also wants to be a bit “dressy” to make house guests feel special. This bathroom needed to do both. We first addressed its utility with bathroom necessities including the tub/shower. The recessed medicine cabinet in combination with an elongated vanity tackles all the storage needs including a concealed waste bin. Thoughtfully placed towel hooks are mostly out of sight behind the door while the half-wall hides the paper holder and a niche for other toilet necessities. It’s the materials that elevate this bathroom to powder room status. The tri-color marble penny tile sets the scene for the color palette. Carved black marble wall tile adds the necessary drama flowing along two walls. The remaining two walls of tile keep the room durable while softening the effects of the black walls and vanity. Rounded elements such as the light fixtures and the apron sink punctuate and carry the theme of the floor tile throughout the bathroom. Polished chrome fixtures along with the beefy frameless glass shower enclosure add just enough sparkle and contrast.

Located on over 2 acres this sprawling estate features creamy stucco with stone details and an authentic terra cotta clay roof. At over 6,000 square feet this home has 4 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, formal dining room, formal living room, kitchen with breakfast nook, family room, game room and study. The 4 garages, porte cochere, golf cart parking and expansive covered outdoor living with fireplace and tv make this home complete.

This bathroom had such a dark and dated look to it. The client wanted all modern looks, granite and tile to the bathroom. The footprint did not change but the remodel is day and night. Photos by Preview First.

The Duncan home is a custom designed log home. It is a 1,440 sq. ft. home on a crawl space, open loft and upstairs bedroom/bathroom. The home is situated in beautiful Leatherwood Mountains, a 5,000 acre equestrian development in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Photos are by Roger Wade Studio. More information about this home can be found in one of the featured stories in Country's Best Cabins 2015 Annual Buyers Guide magazine.

Our mission was to completely update and transform their huge house into a cozy, welcoming and warm home of their own. “When we moved in, it was such a novelty to live in a proper house. But it still felt like the in-law’s home,” our clients told us. “Our dream was to make it feel like our home.” Our transformation skills were put to the test when we created the host-worthy kitchen space (complete with a barista bar!) that would double as the heart of their home and a place to make memories with their friends and family. We upgraded and updated their dark and uninviting family room with fresh furnishings, flooring and lighting and turned those beautiful exposed beams into a feature point of the space. The end result was a flow of modern, welcoming and authentic spaces that finally felt like home. And, yep … the invite was officially sent out! Our clients had an eclectic style rich in history, culture and a lifetime of adventures. We wanted to highlight these stories in their home and give their memorabilia places to be seen and appreciated. The at-home office was crafted to blend subtle elegance with a calming, casual atmosphere that would make it easy for our clients to enjoy spending time in the space (without it feeling like they were working!) We carefully selected a pop of color as the feature wall in the primary suite and installed a gorgeous shiplap ledge wall for our clients to display their meaningful art and memorabilia. Then, we carried the theme all the way into the ensuite to create a retreat that felt complete.
