DIRECTLY ACROSS
FROM THE ISLAND,
A COFFEE BAR IS
TUCKED INTO A
CORNER NICHE,
WITH A MINI-
SINK, PORCELAIN
COUNTERTOP AND
MAPLE CABINETRY.
Herringbone patterns on the mudroom's
black barn-style door and on the feature
wall over the staircase are repeated in
smaller details at the front of the house —
in the family bath and mudroom flooring,
and in a niche built in to the en suite
shower.
By the way, that en suite ticks every box,
from its floating double vanity and white
built-in wall cabinet — it's almost the twin
of the display cabinet at the coffee bar —
to the glass-enclosed shower with its gold
rainfall showerhead and a practical hand-
held wand. Its built-in nook is like a small
piece of art, with sheets of small-scale
subway tile — in a herringbone pattern —
and a slim gold frame.
The fact that it does not have a bathtub is
very on-trend today. Even people who sell
stand-alone tubs have been telling us for
years that they're just for show.
