Second level living floor plan vs. Main level floor plan? Anyone
Comments (13)My current house is "reversed" as well. It's 3-stories/five levels to maximize the ocean views. First level is the foyer/garage, half-flight up is the master facing the ocean, half up from that are two guest rooms facing the street, half up is a story-and-half great room facing the ocean (over the master bedroom footprint).

Comments (1)In general it isn't a good idea to mix a real product with a faux version of it. I did use wood-look tile in my guest house and we have real wood on the staircase, BUT I had the hardwood floor guy stain and finish the wood stair treads to match the tile. He got a very very close match and most don't notice the transition from tile to wood to tile. Why don't you like hardwood in the kitchen? This is my third house with all hardwood (except for bathrooms) and we've never had any issues. I would steer away from huge contrast and faux next to real....See MoreI need help laying out furniture for my main floor pleasee!
