House Plan 2750: Bedale

Bedale - 2750

There's no doubt. This home is designed for those who love to entertain, both formally and casually. The home is reminiscent of a European-style manor. Impressive columns outline the covered front entry, beckoning guests inside, where they are greeted by a double-height foyer with a stunning winding staircase.
Public rooms and a private den flow around the perimeter of the circular foyer. The curve of the foyer is echoed in the window wall of the soaring great room. A double-sided gas fireplace lends warmth to both the great room and the games room. The games room also features a tray ceiling, a wet bar, a wall of built-in cabinetry, and a French door that leads to the back yard.

The spacious kitchen and dining nook are defined by a tray ceiling. At the hub of the elegant kitchen, the curved island is equipped with a cooktop, vegetable sink, and snack bar. To supplement kitchen storage, there's a walk-in pantry with double doors beneath the back staircase. Between the kitchen and angular dining room, a butler's pantry facilitates the serving of formal meals. It's furnished with cabinetry, countertop, and a sink. A wine cellar is just around the corner.

Overnight guests are welcomed in the first-floor guest suite with its private bath. Family bedrooms and baths are on the top level. The marvelous master suite features a fireplace, a his-and-her closet, and a large bath with twin vanities, a whirlpool tub, and a shower. Conveniently located near the bedrooms, the laundry room is furnished with a sink, cabinets, counters, and a built-in ironing board
