Gracious foyer area with stairs leading to lower level.
You can't help but suspect a luxurious master bedroom retreat is beyond this formal entry hallway. No detail is missed in the trim and molding, even for this small space.

This hallway was part of a larger remodel of an attic space which included the hall, master bedroom, bathroom and nursery. Painted a brilliant white and borrowing light from the frosted, glass inset nursery and bedroom doors, this light hardwood space is lined on one side with custom, built-in storage. Making the most of the sloping eave space and pony wall, there is room for stacking, hanging and multiple drawer depths, very versatile storage. The cut-out pulls and toe-kick registers keep the floor and walkway clear of any extrusions. The hall acts as an extension of the bedrooms, with the narrow bench providing a resting place while getting ready in the morning.

Upon entering the New Westminster house plan from the garage, enjoy the built-in bench and storage area.
At the top of the stairs on the second floor, the stair hall is enlarged into a library. The books are stored in built-in Pine shelves and in the dormer facing the Pacific Ocean is a built in bed for reading and naps. It is raised one step above the floor to improve the views. The bed had storage build-in for quilts and comforters
A custom-designed paneled zinc barn door is a piece of art, as well as functioning to close off the living space when desired.
