House Plan 2737: Northampton

Northampton - 2737

First impressions are important, and "Wow!" will be the response as guests enter the front doors of this spectacular luxury home. A grand, curving staircase dominates the two-story-high entry hall. To the right, French doors open a secluded den that includes built-in shelving and a huge storage area. Straight ahead and a few steps down, the two-story living room is furnished with a fireplace, built-in shelves, and a panoramic view through walls of windows. The dining room boasts a wet bar and a butler's pantry, making the entire area perfect for gala entertaining. A long island delineates the kitchen from the family room. The island houses a sink, dishwasher, and snack counter. Three pantries ensure plentiful storage.

Begin or end the day in the lavish second-floor master suite. There's room for both a sleeping and sitting area in the bedroom. The sumptuous bath harbors a whirlpool tub in a windowed alcove, a curvaceous shower stall, and a privacy enclosure for the toilet and bidet. A secondary bedroom suite is also on this level.

On the lower level, two bedrooms share a compartmentalized bath. A huge sunken games room is furnished with a fireplace, walls of windows, and French doors to the backyard. This level also houses a very special treat - a wine cellar and a walk-in cold room!
