Wormy chestnut paneling sets the tone for a male-dominated
gathering space where antlers and fur rule.
But it’s what lies
beyond the tree, the
walls and the foundation
that makes this
house a home.
The master bedroom’s
his and her
closets — his with
ample space for boots,
hats, shirts and pants,
hers with more than
ample space for four
season’s worth of vanities;
the master suite
doorknobs engraved
with the owners’
monogram; and the
Jack-and-Jill bathrooms
are individualized
with sleek marble
for him and quilted
tiles, a diamondshaped
toilet and a
soaking tub for her.
Black says not
one space was left
untouched by someone’s
opinion, idea
or creative concern.
