Simpson House
When the homeowners purchased this former group home, the beautiful old structure needed a total facelift. The low basement was underpinned for its tall owners, and a sauna spa area was added. An addition on the back provides space for a sleek kitchen with a large island and integrated appliances, and a serene master bedroom. Storage is everywhere, including a clever shoe cupboard under the stairs. A plant wall adorns the light-filled open staircase. On the second floor, movable walls create flexible office and meeting spaces for the work-from-home owners. A dumbwaiter and third- story patio are ideal for entertaining.
