FABULOUS & FUNCTIONAL — Cont'd from page 117 "Our goal was to design a spacious, well-appointed family home that had the flexibility to accommodate a parent, whether they were visiting or living there permanently," says KDR president and chief designer Diego Vassallo. To that end, a wing off the kitchen has a luxe three-piece bath and a flex room that can be used as a bedroom or a den. The room has a spacious closet and patio doors that allow for privacy. "There's also a hallway to a mudroom that provides access to an oversized double- attached garage. In-laws using the room can access it through the patio doors or from the garage." At the front entry, a large foyer opens to a formal dining room, with a wide hallway leading to a spectacular great room and kitchen. The family room has a 20-foot ceiling, with an abundance of windows and a linear gas fireplace set in a grey tile surround that stretches from floor to ceiling. The kitchen has a 10-foot ceiling and a solarium-like informal dining area, which can easily accommodate a table for six to 10. Glossy two-tone cabinetry melds perfectly with the grey-veined off-white quartz countertops and the two-tone circular tile on the backsplash. A large L-shaped island houses a double sink and has comfortable seating for four, along with plenty of counterspace. OUR GOAL WAS TO DESIGN A SPACIOUS, WELL-APPOINTED FAMILY HOME THAT HAD THE FLEXIBILITY TO ACCOMMODATE A PARENT, WHETHER THEY WERE VISITING OR LIVING THERE PERMANENTLY. 118 Parade of Homes Spring 2020
