A Bright, Airy Master
At roughly 16 by 11 feet, the master bedroom is hardly oversize, but a vaulted ceiling and light colors make it feel spacious. Designer Denise Enright chose a soft pink inspired by the Cape sky at dusk to direct attention to the master bedroom’s vaulted ceiling. Decorative beams, finished with a transparent wood stain for a sun-bleached look, also draw the eye upward.

In a house where every inch counts, the distance from the wall to window was calculated to be just wide enough for a queen-sized bed. On the side table, a discreet sensor continuously monitors and automatically adjusts indoor air quality.

Sleek and Luxurious Master Bath
Though compact, the master bath’s packs a lot of luxury in a small space, with ample natural light and a heated marble-tile floor. The shower wall tiles are impressive 8-by-4-foot porcelain.

For both upstairs baths, Enright specified contemporary nickel fixtures and hardware, a departure from the more industrial ones downstairs.

Room for Guests
A second upstairs bedroom features a light and breezy palette, and is paired with a hall bath.
An unexpected mix of soft paint colors—on walls, casings, and ceiling—enliven the guest bedroom. Pale bedding and ceiling-high curtains help create an open, airy feel.

Designer Denise Enright used the guest bedroom rug to inspire her choice of blue trim and a soft green ceiling. Leggy, light wood furniture echoes the white oak flooring, enhancing the room’s whimsical, beachy vibe.

Urban-Style Half Bath
A half bath located off the mudroom features a chunky, concrete-top vanity in a style that melds urban and organic. But what grabs all the attention in this room, says Enright, is the watercolor-patterned wall covering that looks like grasscloth. “People walk in and they have to touch it, but it’s just paper,” she says.
