A sophisticated home should always feel a little bit glamorous, grand and it definitely should feel well thought out. I think a sophisticated space is only achievable if you pay attention to every detail in the room, not only the furniture and accessories, but also the architecture. And sophistication isn’t achieved by only “throwing” different kinds of textures and elements. For example, this home became sophisticated, not because one room was done right, but because the entire house is connected by its beauty and great design. When designing a home, I think it’s crucial to connect elements that sends a good and welcoming vibe. After all, a sophisticated interior is only well worth it when it’s easy to live with.
Courtyard
Lush lawns bring you to the house.
Living Room
This living room is well dressed, but nothing over the top. A sophisticated room shouldn’t be “over dressed”.
Dining Room
The furniture is pretty, but what takes this dining room to the next level is that chandelier and a rug would make it even more welcoming.
Kitchen
Dark cabinets can still look amazing! Yes, it seems that we’re all so fascinated with the white ones that we forget how beautiful dark stained wood can be. Love the clean lines of this kitchen and that range is something else!
Family Room
Okay… I’m not a big fan of having a bar in the family room. It’s just not really appealing to me, other than that, I simply love this room. The pillows are also really pretty.
Master Bedroom
My very favorite place in this house! The beams are extremely beautiful and a fireplace is always great to have in a bedroom.
Master Bathroom
Very gray and very stylish. That mirror and the bench brings sophistication to this room.
Summer Breeze
I love seeing blue outdoors. Isn’t it a fabulous place?
Views
Is there anything more sophisticated than ocean views?
Remember, we don’t need to live in a multi-million dollar home to be able to have a sophisticated space. You can also have it by bringing beautiful things into your space, according to your budget and to your particular taste.

Hi, my friend
How are you doing?
I have to agree wit you, the best room here is the bedroom!
Wow Lucianne, this is GORGEOUS…..one of my faves of yours in a while. I love all the beams, the kitchen and bath are beautiful. So well done. I love the contrast of the light and dark materials…..really stunning. The bedroom is beautiful and the outdoor space with the pop of blue fabulous! Well done…hope you are well!
the bedroom is also my favorite! my bedroom is my sweet escape and my only regret is that when we built this house we did not make this room much larger and with some french doors to the outside!
hope you are well and nesting nicely in anticipation!
hugs.

Another ‘yes please’ for me! I love beams and ocean views. And what I really like about this home is it’s not super-sized compared to so many others with similar elements. To be honest though, this one had me at ‘hello’… I love the welcoming curb appeal and beautiful backdrop of the mountains. 🙂

What a great house! I love the furnishings and wood beams throughout the house. The bedroom has a very welcoming and cozy feel to it. I agree with you about the bar in the family room – love it otherwise. The outdoor patio and ocean views are wonderful.
You got me at the beautiful chandelier. I agree the room needs a rug. The master bath is spectacular. The mountain view. What’s not to love. I hope you are well.
* This WONDERFUL, TRULY WELCOMING homelooks like it’s in Santa Barbara or thereabouts, where I was raised…
I… LOVE… ALMOST… EVERYTHING!!! One of two “lil’ changes” & I could live there FOREVER!!!
It’s sooooo my taste, & I was lucky enough to CONVINCE my husband to take a look at it all and HE, TOO, truly likes it n’ feels it suits us….
So, may I say “SOLD”?!?!? Smiles n’ many thanks!

P.S. That super “editing” reeeeeally works for us, too… Soooo nicely done!!! Warmest again, Linda *
My favorite is the kitchen. I like the family room, but would want to use the bar square footage in another way. Last, I also like the “Summer Breeze” patio. And, I agree that the blue looks lovely in this outdoor space.
This is amazing! I have to tell you we are in the process of planning our dream home and that bedroom and back terrace are EXACTLY what I would love to have so they both went into the dream house folder – thanks so much!!! 🙂
Hi Luciane,
This is a great house! I love the kitchen and the sitting room and the bedroom.
And that view!!! Gorgeous!!
I wish you a wonderful weekend!!
