Primary Suite Addition in Mount Kisco, NY

The primary bedroom sits under a sloped ceiling with recessed lights, gray-blue walls and dark hardwood floors. A whitewashed brick fireplace centers the far wall between two pairs of windows, with room on each side for a reading chair. At the other end, two paneled closets flank a trimmed archway.

The archway opens onto a stair lined with white paneled wainscoting, a navy upper wall and a wall-mounted handrail. At the foot of the stair, a small vestibule with floral wallpaper and a window leads to a study with built-in white bookcases, base cabinets and a second fireplace. The bedroom gets its own approach, with storage and a quiet place to read on the way up.
