E
very homeowner should feel like the king—or queen—
of the castle; and with no need to allocate space to
children, Kelly and Joe Campbell let their desire to
create a home where they truly felt a sense of dominion guide
them through the planning of their house in Nature Trail
Preserve. With its Craftsman-inspired exterior, the 3300 square
foot home hardly screams over-the-top splendor, showing
modesty rather than extravagance amidst the lush greenery
that surrounds it. But luxury need not be gilded in gold, as the
house’s interior readily shows, with its blend of stonework,
brick detailing, and millwork. Such are the hallmarks of
the Craftsman style, and that was the vision at work for the
Campbells in each space of their home—interspersed, of
course, with just a few details that are truly crowning glories.
Such details are certainly at play in the master suite, a space
that claims an entire wing of the house to create a sprawling
sanctuary replete with a reading nook, an expansive bath, and
access directly out onto the back porch, all mere steps off a
bedroom flooded by the light of a multitude of windows. Not
to be overlooked, the Campbell’s walk-in closet commands
attention of its own, for just behind the rustic charm of a
handcrafted reclaimed barn wood door lays a capacious interior
lit by the dazzling glow of a chandelier. “It’s one of my favorite
things about the house,” Kelly admits with a smile.
