EGYPT VALLEY TRADITIONAL RESIDENCE

Inspired by a coastal California estate, this sprawling country home was a collaboration between longtime clients and the talented team at 42 North Architecture + Design.

The rather minimal foyer sets the stage for a grand entrance. Rich wood doors create an elegant, formal opening into the home.

Who doesn’t love a jewel box powder room? The beautifully appointed space features wainscot, a custom metallic ceiling, and custom vanity with marble floors. Wallpaper by Nina Campbell for Osborne & Little.

A grand entrance, indeed! This great-room boasts a 28’ vaulted wood ceiling with beams, gorgeous views, and a custom wide plank, white oak floor by Old To Gold. Dining set by Therien Studio.

The three season patio provides near perfect views of sylvan Egypt Valley. It is ideal for cool nights with a warm fire and good book. The custom wood ceiling is oak, the stone fireplace by Belden Brick & Supply.

Though voluminous, the great room is expertly segmented to give each space a unique, cozy feeling. The Living Room is perfect for gathering around the fireplace, while sitting comfortably on custom furnishings from Theodore Alexander, Hickory Chair, Vanguard, and Lorts.

The cozy living room fireplace features tile from Walker Zanger and custom millwork designs above and flanking.

The gorgeous corridor of the master suite greets the home owners with beautiful wallpaper by Morris & Co.. The ceiling color is Benjamin Moore AF-490 Tranquility.

The clients desired a Master Bedroom with the feel of a luxury hotel suite. The barrel vaulted ceiling is clad with pillowed wood, to accentuate the curve. The bed is from Fine Furniture Design, with wallpaper by Osborne & Little. The carpet is STARK.

The bold statement made in the room’s plan feels formal, but with softened colors and textures, like the ceiling paper by Stacy Garcia, and the cabinetry color, Benjamin Moore AF-575 Instinct. Tiles by Crossville and Pratt & Larson.

The ample kitchen is a key feature in the Great Room, as the proverbial heart of the home. The white oak floors are by Old to Gold. The mosaic is Cepac Tile. Countertops by Dwyer Marble & Stone. The Century stools are upholstered in Brentano fabric.

We design with layers of color, texture and pattern, to create interesting and dynamic spaces. This home perfectly reflects the taste and style of the clients: it is functional and beautiful.

Who wouldn’t want to have breakfast in this nook? The custom banquette is upholstered in practical textiles from Brentano and Momentum. The custom chairs are from Lorts.

This fun pantry that makes you want to learn to cook! Coronata wallcovering by Osborne & Little, wood counters by Grothouse, wood flooring by Old to Gold.

Ample windows and a beamed, vaulted ceiling create architectural interest with gorgeous natural light in this sunroom, with fabrics from Scalamandre featured on furniture and pillows.

Our clients enjoy sweeping views of their Egypt Valley property from the sun room. As a divider to the wife’s home office, we utilized laser cut wood panels, in lieu of a window or curtain. Atop the STARK rug sits furniture from Theodore Alexander, Vanguard and Hickory Chair, with pillows by Pillows by Dezign.

The wife’s home office boasts an abundance of personalized details. A laser cut wood panel with a geometric design allows for openness and abundant natural light. The white, custom cabinetry is accentuated by William Yeoward wallpaper, with matching fabric for her pin board. The plush velvet bench hosts an array of custom pillows by Pillows by Dezign.

With this fun wallpaper by Stroheim and this view, who would imagine laundry a chore in this charming laundry room? Cabinetry by Ascent Fine Cabinetry.

Guests can access this fun bathroom from the entry, guest room and outdoor patio. Wallpaper by Nina Campbell, tile by Dwyer Marble & Stone, and counters by Cambria atop custom vanities.

The soaring vaulted ceiling in the guest suite features handsome wood and white beams, and vistas of the property, with ample natural light.

Grandkids stay organized when visiting in this functional mud room, with shiplap white walls, a custom bench and plenty of cabinetry for storage. Pillow fabrics by Scion.

The staircase leading to the lower level of this home perfectly suites the style of the gorgeous turned posts by MWT Wood Turning. The ship lap walls lead into the plaster walls below, painted in warm Sherwin Williams 7022 Alpaca.

The lower level family room is a cozy gathering space for family and friends. The 10’ ceilings are coffered with textured paper on the ceiling. Fireplace stone and hearth by Belden Brick & Supply.

The lower level kitchenette provides a full-service area for entertaining, with sliding doors that reveal the theater beyond, if overflow requires additional viewing.

A comfortable conversation area creates another use for this decked out home theater, with walls painted in Benjamin Moore AF-720 Sparrow, and an acoustic covering on the ceiling by Momentum.

A glass slider on barn door hardware allows the sewing and craft room to receive natural light from the windows, but maintain a sense of privacy when used.

In this fun guest bathroom, a penny round tile mosaic and wall tiles from Cepac enliven the space, while custom cabinetry allows for plenty of storage.

With over 25 grand children, this bunk room is a necessity for the home. The plaid carpet is by Karastan.
