It's always a delight to showcase the exceptional work of Timber Trails Development Company on Home Bunch. Today, we delve into the interior details of their latest creation - a stunning townhouse that exudes openness and light. Interior designer Julie Howard takes us through the design process, sharing insights on how they achieved a bright and airy ambiance.
Embracing Light: The Inspiration Behind the Design
"The inspiration behind our Timber Trails Open and Airy Townhome was light," says Julie Howard. This middle-unit townhouse, often assumed to lack natural light, defies expectations. By adding a vaulted Sunroom at the back, the team maximized the influx of natural light. The glossy white shiplap walls further amplify the brightness, allowing light to bounce off and illuminate every corner. This abundance of natural light compelled them to name the townhouse "Open and Airy."

Uniqueness in Townhouse Living
Townhouses often lack individuality, but this design stands out. The well-planned landscaping and stunning architectural details already add character to the exterior. From the herringbone driveway to the brick facade, every feature exudes charm. To further personalize the space, homeowners can unleash their creativity. Adding beautiful planters by the front door or garage, hanging wreaths, or planting favorite flowers injects a sense of individuality.
Interior Highlights: Designing for Modern Living
The townhouse boasts three bedrooms, three and a half baths, and a two-car garage. The interiors perfectly blend modern farmhouse aesthetics with classic elements. The carefully chosen color palette, with Benjamin Moore's Classic Gray dominating, creates a timeless and elegant atmosphere. Let's explore some of the standout features:
Inviting Entryway and Foyer

The entryway sets the tone for the entire home. A vintage table painted white and an eye-catching chandelier from Ballard Designs greet guests with elegance. The mirror above the table adds depth and reflects the natural light flooding the space. The overall effect is one of understated luxury and comfort.
Cozy Living Room with Fireplace
"The fireplace is actually two back-to-back gas units," reveals Julie Howard. The front fireplace features a traditional trim of boxes and cove molding, while the back fireplace, in the sunroom, is surrounded by shiplap. The use of thick cased openings around the fireplace adds intricate detail to the space. A mix of Ikea furniture, such as the sofa, chairs, and coffee table, complements the modern farmhouse vibe.
Heart of the Home: The Kitchen

The kitchen is the heart of any home, and this townhouse is no exception. Julie Howard explains how they modernized the floor plan to suit today's living. By pulling the kitchen out and making it the star of the room, they created a space that is beautiful and functional. The 12-foot-long kitchen island, with its raw concrete countertop, connects seamlessly to the family room, fostering a sense of togetherness.
Intimate Dining Area

Tucked away from the main living space, the dining area exudes intimacy. The built-in banquette with custom intricate trim elevates the dining experience. A beautiful chandelier from Palecek adds a touch of elegance, while Joss and Main chairs provide comfortable seating. This space is perfect for both day-to-day family meals and entertaining guests.
