Elk Haven ~ 2020 Tour of Homes award for Notable Kitchen

2674 square feet, one level, three bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms

Elk Haven was designed with openness in mind; offering a picturesque view from every window. The great room features lovely water views through double sliding glass doors along with a beautiful stone fireplace—a homeowner inspired design. The leaded-glass windows are heirlooms of the homeowner's family. The sliding doors open to a covered Brazilian walnut wrap-around deck, adding an inviting outdoor space to the home layout. An open transition from the great room to the kitchen leaves space for bar seating at the island counter. The potbelly stove makes for a charming addition to the space and offers additional warmth in the winter months. Past the kitchen is the mud room, complete with dog shower and grooming counter along with another access to the deck.

The hardwood floors throughout the home are hand-scraped white oak planks of random width. The excellent tile work and hand-hewn interior timber frame showcase the craftsmanship at work throughout the home. The maple kitchen cabinets, with a “frosty white” finish, complement the colonial cream “leathered” granite countertops
