really more of a teen hangout. The moody green walls and green velvet seating pieces create a cool space with just enough room for Brown and Ava to watch TV or spend time with friends. Ava’s room is light and airy like the rest of the house, with a brass canopy bed and dusty blue grass cloth to add femininity to the space. Flanking each side of Ava’s bed are two beautiful antique chinoiserie lamps Harvey saved from her grandmother’s house and updated by simply changing out the lampshades for a more current fabric and shape. Ava also has a daybed that doubles as a sofa, space for sleepovers and a desk area. However, probably the most exciting element for a teen girl is her large walk-in closet, complete with ample built-ins and fun light fixtures. The master bedroom has French doors leading to a private porch. The doors allow the bedroom to be filled with natural light. Behind the bedroom is the master bath

with two separate vanity areas and two separate closets. White marble tile details both the floor and the shower walls. For the smaller of the two closets, you head down a short hallway perfectly accented by a small, square window. The larger of the two closets is just to the left of the shower. It has been painted gray and hosts a two-tier chandelier for added emphasis. Both closets have been further detailed using built-in drawers, shelves for clothes and shoes, as well as perfectly appointed spots for everything, even the suitcases. The old adage of “A place for everything and everything in its place” certainly applies to the Harveys’ home. Through her experience in building, designing and living thoughtfully through each of her previous homes, Lynlee Harvey has used her attention to detail to create the perfect place for her family to call home.
