THE TEAM: WENDI JAY DESIGN

Grandeur meets comfort in this countryside estate. An ode to exquisite simplicity, this home is designed for a small family who regularly entertains. Wendi Jay Design was brought in for a full-scale new build. Memorable statements include the bleached walnut living room floor, the kitchen’s gorgeous La Cornue range, custom cabinetry, Calacatta gold marble, and vintage chestnut countertops.

A stunning stone floor grounds soaring ceilings in both the foyer and kitchen. Textural interest in the entertainment spaces comes from subtle wallcovering, which simultaneously absorbs noise and accidental party fingerprints. Original artwork and Persian rugs add visual warmth downstairs. Upstairs, neutrals are balanced with cheerful pops of color in the bedrooms and nursery. A Wendi Jay Design bonus: the nursery is sleep-nurse certified.

Intentional design in this home makes for functional, visually pleasing family spaces that flow seamlessly into dedicated socializing areas. While entertaining, the private areas of the home can be closed off with large barn sliding doors.
