Maybe this is where my sewing table could fit? With a drop-down/hidden ironing board in the wall beside it.
Wood or wood-look floor, floorboards,door trim, beams
Like the chair rail along walls, also wood framing of windows.
Like the way these windows are cut into concrete foundation. Also like the way the wood covers the ductwork on ceiling.
Like small bar area. Not sure if we want a bar downstairs or not, though.
Flooring great. Wood accents/halfwalls add a lot of interest to room.
Like the feature wall and crown molding
Like the colors; feels cozy
Right size, need coat closet on one side just like our present home has. Don't need the height of this foyer.
Ceramic tile is great for entries. (and kitchens)
Like door and side windows.
Side windows beside door. would have a solid wood door with no window in it. Size is right.
Love the colors and stone work and beams. But too grandiose for our smaller home.
Separate room, but large connecting doorways to rest of house, not closed in. Large windows on outside wall.
Separate room, but lots of connections to other areas of house.
Crown moulding and baseboards. Brick feature wall.
Island (without sink), lots of windows onto patio, layout of kitchen
Big island, lots of counterspace. Prefer cooktop to be on island, facing family room and TV. (Watch the news while I cook)
Like the transitions from kitchen/island to eating area to family room.
large window by eating area, they light up the whole kitchen.
Attached family room, vaulted ceiling
"stepped" island, so guests can't see the cooking mess.
attached to family room. Dark granite countertop.
Like the tile floors.
cupboard color and grey granite countertop. Looks "open".
Storage space under stair.
Wooden stairs with tapestry runner. Wood/metal handrail.
Dark color of stairs.
Wide stairway (like ours). Need deeper stairs
Like the built-in storage under stair.
Fireplace on side wall, doesn't obstruct main view, and opposite to where west patio door would be.
Corner fireplace is neat. With view to west.
Like this room - but fewer windows and more wall, a little less height in the vault.
Really like the fireplace, at ground level without a hearth. Wooden floor with area rug.
Fireplace, wood trim around doors and windows, nice view out end of vault.
Nicefireplace, with wood mantle and stone hearth.
Like the fireplace, large windows, floor. But all too big, need to scale it down a lot.
Like the patio!
Like combination of stucco, rock, wood accents.
Nice wood window trim. Not sure how practical in our climate.
Nice look for the vaulted great room, facing west. Fireplace on west patio - could also open outward to have fireplace on patio?
Really like this - front veranda, wood accents, long simple roofline. Wouldn't run stone all the way up garage though.
Like front entry, but scaled down a bit.
LOVE the front veranda - sheltered from elements. Could we do this on a single storey house?
I like the alternating straight and curved spindles.
