This timeless home has undergone an interior remodel by interior design firm Ore Studios, nestled in a rural Seattle suburb at the foothills of the Cascades, Washington. Featuring beautiful grounds, a family-friendly floor plan, and ample space for entertaining, the owners purchased this twenty-year-old estate despite its tired and dated finishes.
Not wanting to reinvent the house, they asked the project team to leave the general layout intact while removing all of the finishes and fixtures in order to start fresh. They wanted their 6,300 square foot dwelling to feel relaxed with a quiet glamour reflecting their well-traveled point of view.
DESIGN DETAILS: INTERIOR DESIGN Ore Studios GENERAL CONTRACTOR Jordan Valente Construction CUSTOM FURNITURE Chadhaus CABINETRY Handcraft Inc. FINE ART Winston Wächter
Red oak, slate, and granite tile were replaced with a palette of white oak, richly veined marble, and murky green-gray paints. Custom cabinets feature inset doors and drawers with flush bases scribed to the floor. Hardware and lighting fixtures are more contemporary than the rest of the remodel, reflecting the homeowners’ singular perspective.
Above: The kitchen was transformed with new cabinetry and Rejuvenation hardware. The backsplash tile is the Ait Manos tiles from Ann Sacks, while the countertops are Caesarstone quartz. Above the island, the clear glass pendant lights are by O’Lampia. The faucets are by Rohl, while the farmhouse sink is by Shaw, both sourced from Ferguson.
The decoration was kept relatively neutral in deference to the views outside, with small doses of olive green and sky blue referencing the grounds surrounding the house.
What We Love: This Washington home remodel preserves the structure while completely refreshing the interiors. A mainly neutral color palette keeps the living spaces feeling bright, airy, and timeless. We are especially loving the gorgeous kitchen, with its clean, contemporary lines and exquisite material selection. Overall, the designer did a fabulous job of creating a newly inspired home for family living and entertaining.
