Shake-Textured Siding Gives Thomaston a European Look

A deftly designed interplay of shake-textured siding and cultured stone veneer draws admiring eyes to the Thomaston. Two tall, handsome, framed-out columns support the vaulted, covered porch, while highlighting its gently arched opening.

Comfortably roomy gathering spaces, plus a study, powder room and office/den fill the ground floor. Three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a utility room and a deep bonus room are on the second level.

Entering, you step into a lofty two-story foyer. A study is to the right, as is an open stairway that climbs to the second floor. On the left, an arched opening leads to a powder room and coat closet before angling toward the bright gathering space that fills most of the rear.

The dining area that sits at the center of this gathering space is totally open to the kitchen. On the other side of the dining room, twin sets of bold columns flank an arched opening that leads into the spacious, richly glassed family room similar to Cape Cod home plans. Slender windows on the side wall sit on both sides of a wide-hearthed gas fireplace that adds warmth and cheer on dark days and nights.

An eating bar rims one side of the central work island in the C-shaped kitchen. Storage and counter space are in good supply here, boosted by the pantry and work island. Direct entry from the three-car garage is conveniently close.

Upstairs, the vaulted owners' suite fills the right side. Luxury touches include: a large walk-in closet, spa tub, oversized shower, dual vanity, and private toilet. Two more bedrooms share a bathroom off of the Thomaston's balcony landing. The bonus room has a front window and, surprisingly, a spacious walk-in closet.
