Remington Road

This five-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath custom home on Remington Road sets black-framed windows and steep gables against white brick, with stone trim around the windows and stained wood double doors at the entry. It offers 4,743 square feet above grade plus a 1,455-square-foot finished lower level, for 6,198 finished square feet in all.

In the kitchen, a dark-stained island with a deep undermount sink faces a wall of white cabinetry built around the cooktop: a full-height marble-look slab backsplash, a built-in hood with crown molding, lit glass-front cabinets on either side, and a recessed spice niche. A built-in bar area with dark cabinetry, glass-front uppers, and a geometric tile backsplash sits nearby, and a cased opening leads to a breakfast room framed by tall windows.

Black-framed sliding doors with transoms open the family room to a covered porch with a wood-plank ceiling, painted brick walls, large-format tile floors, and a brick fireplace. At the far end, an outdoor kitchen with built-in grills and a stone counter sits beside the dining area, so cooking and dinner both move outside in good weather.

The bedroom suite has a tray ceiling, a crystal drum chandelier, and wide-plank wood floors, with a freestanding tub visible through the bath doorway. In the bath, two separate wood vanities with marble-look tops sit under brass-framed mirrors and sconces, alongside floating wood shelves and a herringbone tile floor. The finished lower level adds a media wall with built-in cabinetry and lit shelving, a wet bar with a beverage fridge and counter seating, and an exercise room.
