“She did a great job of nailing our style and then pushing us a little out of our comfort zone”
On moving in, Sarah and Dave spent ten days improving the property. including painting the whole interior, adding crown moulding, a bespoke master bedroom closet, white shutters and a custom garage. A month after, interior designer Cecily Mendell helped finish the kitchen and family room nook, living room, dining room, downstairs powder room and master bedroom. “She did a great job of nailing our style and then pushing us a little out of our comfort zone. She has impeccable style,” says Sarah. The modern decor of the new house is greatly different from Sarah and Dave’s previous property, which was smaller and Spanish in architecture: “we had dark brown cabinetry and furniture throughout and light tumbled travertine flooring with light muted colours as accents,” explains Sarah.
