Stacye Love's traditional two-story offers surprises around every corner of its 3,693 square feet. While very functional in design, the four bedroom, three-and-a-half bath home doesn't skimp on style. Unique painting treatments, vaulted ceilings and elaborate trim highlight a creative floor plan that makes the most of every inch. The Madison is destined to be a landing pad for friends and family who crave an environment where they can relax and enjoy each other.
The front porch features 12 foot Tuscan columns highlighted by stone and paver flatwork. A detailed porch ceiling complements the front entry which is welcomed by an eight foot mahogany door with sidelights and a transom. Lanterns add a traditional feel, along with CertainTeed pre-finished siding that resembles the color of wicker. Around back, Love has used tumbled pavers to create a courtyard, which features a fire pit and grill with bar seating that continues the invitation to socialize outside.
Inside The Madison, 12 foot ceilings in the main portion of the house and tall windows create the grandeur of a larger home. A beamed ceiling and fireplace in the great room offer immediate warmth to guests and a comfortable place to sit back and relax. Nearby, the kitchen and dining room areas continue the open, welcoming feel. A weathered copper hood and island farm sink make washing dishes and preparing meals more of a pleasure than a chore. The gourmet kitchen also features a dual fuel professional range and an inset arched walnut butler's pantry. A sunroom just off the kitchen infuses the entire space with light and beckons homeowners to venture out to the spectacular courtyard where summer evening cookouts near the grill are more than your average red and white checkered tablecloth event. Late night talks around the firepit will be a mainstay for homeowners who value unique outdoor living spaces.
Just beyond the sunroom, is a mudroom with built-in cubbies, providing convenient access to the side porch that leads to the courtyard and two-car garage. The uniquely designed master suite is introduced through a private entrance that features a planning desk and built-in bookshelves. The sleeping chambers provide the gracious living of a much larger home with elaborate ceiling details, a spa bath, stackable laundry and a large walk-in closet. Upstairs, The Madison features two additional bedrooms, a Jack-and-Jill bath, laundry area and a unique loft space. The second floor also features a porch roof.
The lower level welcomes a spacious recreation room and wet bar area as well as a fourth bedroom and additional bath and walk-in closet. Unfinished space offers ample storage. Energy efficient building techniques and products are incorporated into this Energy Star qualified home including, Owen's Pro-Pink complete blown-in R-15 wall insulation system, a Lennox 93 percent AFUE furnace and an air infiltration package.
Along with efficiency, Stacye Love has created an intriguing floor plan that meets her clients' needs and provides a sense of openness and appreciation for taking time to enjoy life. The Madison is a home that surprises and impresses, with a balance of traditional design, modern amenities and creativity in a place where home
owners will certainly be glad to lay their heads each night.
