FOR LOVE OF FAMILY
Throughout the process, the homeowners
worked to create a space where they could
share their life with loved ones, such as family
and close friends. “They see their family, their
children and grandchildren quite often,” John
says. “They love taking them kayaking or skiing.”
In addition to the garage apartment, the
home features several guest bedrooms and high
ceilings to create a spacious and welcoming
atmosphere. The entire first floor has 11-foot
ceilings, and the foyer spans two stories in
height. Meanwhile, the rooms on the second
story have 9-foot ceilings.AUGUST/SEPTEMBER 2019 • 105
