Up the stairs and to the right...

and you'll find our master bedroom and bathroom, walk-in closet, and work space. The floor plan of this room labels what we're using as a work space as a "sitting area" but with a family of four in a 1,400 sq. feet home, we don't do much "sitting." When we first moved in, we actually used the space for Grant. He's since been moved (hello again sleep!) to the playroom which has been working out really well.

We love these 3 square windows. Possibly my favorite thing about this house. Now you know why I skipped out on window treatments in here! We also are enjoying the ceiling fan~ nothing like a soft gentle breeze and the hummm of a fan to put you right to sleep. Not sure why all of the designers on Trading Spaces always despised them so much!

View from the side of the bed.

Love the vivid colors in this landscape. 

Love the calm serenity of Central Park amidst all of the busyness of New York City.

Here's the "sitting area" that was formerly set up as Grant's space.


Here's how we're using that space now...(me right now actually as I type this!)
Love how by simply closing the doors of the armoire, the computer/desk goes away!

 Love re-purposing ceramic vases/planters as holders for various things.


I always wanted a window seat. Luckily our tufted leather bench fit right in!

 View from the attached walk-in closet. Love the double sinks and deep drawers.

View into the closet... 

 Hello beautiful closet. I am really quite proud of my organization here. Who needs a dresser with all this built-in shelving? Pretty amazing that ALL of my clothes (okay, not ALL but most) and ALL of Bart's clothes fit in ONE closet!
