This gorgeous transitional-style dream house was designed by Studio 1 Architects in collaboration with Amy Storm & Company, located in Wheaton, Illinois. On the exterior facade, the black siding, fascia, and roof with the earthy, warm brick are the perfect mix for this home.

Inside you will find a harmonious floor plan with light and airy living spaces that are warm and welcoming and highly functional for family living.
