White Mediterranean Exterior With Red VW
This so-charming Mediterranean home had lost its personality over years of remodels that didn't take advantage of the home's pretty architecture and location. The new owners gutted the house to the studs and created a warm, comfortable residence for their family of four.

White Brick Fireplace and Lantern Pendants
The brick fireplace and its chimney are large and, left in the original red, might feel imposing and out of date. But painted white, they look clean and contemporary and become an ideal backdrop for fun details like the lantern pendants.

White Transitional Great Room With Sloped Ceiling
The bare bones of the great room were kept, including the charming exposed wood ceiling. But simple white and wood furnishings and beautiful hardwood floors make the space fresh and friendly. Sliding glass doors all along the back wall add easy indoor outdoor potential.
