Whitefish Lake

This Mountain Eclectic-style ranch home is situated on a hillside and the exterior is stone and stucco, with extensive use of timber detailing and accents. Three of bedrooms are on the lower level, which includes a theatre; a recreation room with wet bar; a spectacular circular wine room; and a caretaker’s suite. Both a stair and an elevator connect to the main level with a casual, open floor plan including a generous master suite; vaulted great room; a large kitchen located between an open dining room and a breakfast nook; two studies; and a huge studio for all the family’s creative pursuits. Polished concrete floors, rustic stone walls, and reclaimed, antique wood columns and beams are used throughout the house in creative ways to highlight the owner’s remarkable collection of functional and decorative art pieces. Every detail is unique, from the master tub which was carved from a single block of granite, to a curved and perforated steel canopy in the entry, and a secret passage behind a movable bookcase in one of the studies.

East Sixth Avenue

With a rich and authentically detailed exterior of brick and interlaced cut stone, this two-story Tudor home was inspired by the grand historical houses built half a century ago.  Slate-look roof tiles, a grand cast stone entry, heavy timber, wrought iron balconies, and true divided-lite windows complete the memorable exterior of this fine home.  The three-car garage is divided in two sections, and is accessed from a small auto court off the alley behind the house.  The carriage house-style doors add to the home’s historical feel.  The house has a master suite on the second floor, with two additional bedroom suites, one on each level.  The main floor also includes a large mudroom; a vaulted great room; a gourmet kitchen with a skylit nook; a formal dining room with wine room and butler’s pantry; and a study across from an intimate living room and an octagonal parlor.
