The home owned by John and Linda Thomas features a brick and tile porch partially encircling the front and side of the house. As you enter this house your eye is immediately drawn to the fireplace and bookcases which serve as the main focal point for the furniture arrangement. Contemporary and traditional furnishings are combined with new and original light fixtures to produce an interesting effect. The functional landing between the first and second floors provides access to kitchen and living room. French doors open off the living room to reveal a large spacious dining room. The dark oak floors add a feeling of warmth to the rooms.

When John and Linda purchased their Washington Heights home three years ago they were pleased to find that much of the rehabbing had been done by a previous owner. Bathrooms and plumbing are modernized but still retain some original marble tile and some fixtures. The kitchen hosts a tasteful display of collectables which Linda has added to personalize the area.

A lot of time and effort have gone into cosmetic updating since the Thomases moved in. Painting and wallpapering have been done throughout the whole house. An interesting combination of furnishings and accessories give this home its own unique personality. Lots of plants on the second floor add a cheerful touch.
