The Myersdale; A Contemporary Georgian Classic

The Myersdale is a contemporary home design with nostalgic Georgian-style flavor. Classic columns with an arched brick opening highlight and support a grand entry, where two wide sidelights flank a door crowned by a half-round sunburst transom.

A partially vaulted hexagonal great room is at the core of this home. Wings extend to the right and left, then come forward, creating a recessed entry courtyard. Doors on the three-car garage face the golf cart garage on the other side.

Passing through the vaulted covered porch, you step into a partially vaulted entry. The front half of the hexagon consists of the kitchen, utility room, and a storage closet tucked under the stairs to the loft. 

The vaulted ceiling expands the volume in the great rooms naturally bright rear wall. Six wedge-shaped ceiling segments slope dramatically upward to join points at a central apex, and the three rear sections are a wall of multipaned windows. A home entertainment center and woodstove nestle into junctures on both sides of the central section. Here, a set of palladian windows over sliding French doors open onto a vaulted covered patio that wraps around the rear of the home.

Two peninsular counters nearly encircle the kitchen. Both counters are open to the great room. The right counter is longer and rimmed by a raised eating bar. Standing at the sink, you can chat with family or friends at the counter, or look across the great room to the patio and beyond.

A home office and owners' suite fill the left wing. Sliders in the bedroom access the rear, where a relaxing spa could be installed. The walk-in closet is deep. Bathroom features include: a toilet, walk-in shower, spa tub, and dual sinks.

Two more bedrooms, a bathroom, and a door to the garage are in the right wing.
