features playrooms and kid-friendly options

Not to be forgotten, of course, is the space
solely dedicated to the grown-up members
of the family; and the master suite is easily at
the top of Lauren’s favorite places at home.
“Our master bedroom is my serene place,”
she says. “The decor and color palette give
me a feeling of tranquility, creating a real
place of escape that’s serene and private.”
Coffered ceilings in the bedroom are inlaid in
wood, drawing the eye upward and playing
in harmonious accord with oak flooring.
Mere steps away, a fretwork of Italian
marble imbues the master bath with spa-like
opulence, setting off the cast iron soaking tub
to make it a showpiece.
From the patterned turf leading up the
drive to the backyard patio and each inch and
foot in between, every aspect of the Vlahos
home was selected with care and sourced
with much purpose and intent. Theirs is a
cloud of light and air, softly sleek in its way,
a respite of comfort and calm. And for this
young family, it’s a place of peace to learn
and grow and play, a place to take a breath, a
blank canvas for making memories for years
to come.
