Property Brothers Perfection - Drew's Honeymoon House

Welcome 2018!  I am shaking off the road dust from 2017 and committing to blogging more and finally getting some of my client's finished projects up on the site. Last year was BUSY but successful.  Many of my clients have entered the final stage of their projects and I am excited to share them!

For now, I have some beautiful images to share with you of Drew Scott's newly remodeled California home.  It is stunning!  I must admit I find the boys from Property Brothers a bit hokey with some of their schtick, but I have come to appreciate their style.  Hey...not sure how well Jeff Lewis would play on HGTV! Plus with the departure of Chip and Joanna on Fixer Upper, I feel like HGTV has been running nothing but Property Brothers marathons.  Okay HGTV...I will watch PB!

I put the boys' new show on my DVR and finally found some time to watch the new series "Drew's Honeymoon House".  Wow!  I came away thinking...oh snap...that is what y'all would really do with buckets of cash on your own project.  Impressive...tell me more.

Let me set the stage for you.  Drew and his fiancée Linda have purchased a $2.3 million home in LA's tony Hancock Park/Windsor Square.  Drew then enlisted his brother Jonathan to complete a full gut and remodel in an absurd 12 week timeframe.  Spoiler Alert...Jonathan gets it done replete with outdoor living space that includes a pool and fire pit.

Truth...I started to devour each episode and walked away grabbing a number of design ideas.  The boys nailed it.  The first image, the kitchen, is an absolute beauty!  The conservatory windows (hmmm...that looks a lot like the Nate Berkus NYC kitchen) is a total show stopper and sets the stage for the masculine, high contrast vibe for the entire home.

​Pictured above,
 a converted front room now serves as office space that shows off some insane millwork, a rich paint color and a retro, yet mod vibe.  Oh those pocket doors!

Details matter!  The living room above was outfitted with lovely hardwoods laid in a chevron pattern (Jonathan loved that install...not). While you might not appreciate it at first glance, the crown molding was a work of art.  The old moldings were crumbling and had to be replaced.  To keep the integrity of this almost century old home, Jonathan worked with an interior designer to create new moldings (FINALLY...they outed themselves and acknowledged that they use a designer and a team for installs).  A series of stacked wood trims were used to create the above look.  The fireplace, windows and opening to the dining room were all given a facelift as well.

The powder room....ahhhh...that wallpaper.  Drew and Linda hung it themselves.  The bold pattern and black and white contrast is GORGEOUS! The dark crown molding and baseboards draws you into the space even more.  They went a little old school with the toilet tank, but again they were trying to stay "true" to the home's age.

In order to achieve a full en suite bathroom, the home had an addition put on the second level that enclosed a first floor porch (later converted to the kitchen).  The addition was carried through on the second level and allowed for an incredible amount of additional space.  The above again shows a masculine style with the dark wood vanities and black soaking tub.  Love it all!

What's a couple to do with the all the space they inherited with an addition???  Well build an in-law suite of course! Drew's fiancée has a large family that lives in Canada.  A number of her sisters were featured in the show.  Couple that with the Drew's siamese twin...I mean twin brother...and space had to be made for guests.  Jonathan did an excellent job building a casual space with a fireplace, shiplap, a four-poster bed and even a dining area.

Drew's girl Linda went a little CRA, CRA with the wallpaper and put it in almost every room on the second level.  This pattern dressed up an otherwise sterile room.

More shots of the in-law suite bedroom.  It is worth noting that Drew is total genius and partnered with Joss & Main to style the home.  The online retailer outfitted the majority of the home with furnishings, wallpaper, lighting, hardware, outdoor furniture and more, more, more! 

As a result, all of the the "looks" from each episode are captured on the Joss & Main website.  Viewers can buy the exact same item as Drew. Well...I don't think Drew bought them as much as received the items as an endorsement for said products...(hence the genius comment).

With the addition came a third level walkout entertaining space.  This gave the couple a phenomenal view of LA.  The new pool and fire pit with seating area, on the main level, was so inviting. The final episode shows the couple's engagement party.  Okay...I am hooked!

Even the jack & jill bathroom and updated staircase were drool worthy! Drew obviously had a heavy hand in the design process.  The rich, dark colors and heavy contrast made this home!

The 5 episode series is still running on HGTV.  The series is absolutely worth watching.  They did an amazing job and with the Joss & Main partnership, viewers can not only pick up design ideas but can also purchase the same products!

It is beautiful! The paint color is Hague Blue by Farrow and Ball.

I am also a fan of Studio McGee's use of Restless Sea by Behr on the attached blog=:) Go bold!

I’m looking for a Benjamin Moore color, which one would be closet? I am considering Twillight or Hidden Saphire, what do you think of those? Or other recommendations? Thanks

BM Gentleman's Gray and BM Hale Navy would give you the bold blue as well with a deeper blue/gray versus Hidden Sapphire. BM Polo Blue is also a really interesting option.

Search the colors in Pinterest or Google to see how those paint colors take shape in various rooms and then put a few samples up in your space. When testing be sure to look at the options during various times of the day...what works at 9pm doesn't always translate in the light of day.

Such a beautiful home. I'm wondering if anyone knows the name of the white paint color used on the exterior. Thanks!
