Just off the entrance hall, the formal living room offers a modern take on the traditional parlor. “The homeowners wanted something that was comfortable, but not too formal,” notes Mabe. An Ambella Home sofa and Anees Upholstery armchairs provide elegant seating by the family’s treasured piano, all grounded by an area rug by Matt Camron Rugs & Tapestries. A pair of paintings by Don Quade flank the window.
