n n n THIS IMPRESSIVE ESTATE at 1255 Lakeside Drive in lovely Indian Hills in Elm Grove, Wisconsin, offers immaculate luxury and contemporary details. Nestled on 2.16 wooded acres on a pond, this 7,880-square-foot custom stone and brick home features five bedrooms and six full and two half baths. Built in 1995, the home’s pristine, classic grandeur offers a blend of options for personalization by the homeowner, including the display of fine art or unique furnishings.
A circular brick drive at the front entry of the home is edged with carefully manicured lawn and plantings of neatly tended evergreens. Visitors may find the home reminiscent of an English or French country estate, complete with this formal entryway planting. The home’s entry feels expansive and welcoming yet also comfortably private. Trees behind and around the sides of the home offer an aesthetically pleasing natural screen on the property. The home’s beautifully landscaped yard offers plenty of space for homeowners to add a children’s play area, family pool and more. An attached 3.5-car garage offers convenient access to the home throughout Wisconsin’s seasons.
The home’s front entry foyer gleams with immaculate, light walls, understated yet clear lighting, and a light-hued floor. Dark wood doors provide an elegant and contemporary contrast to this color
scheme, and also mirror the colors of the curving banister and stairs leading from the front foyer to the home’s upper level. This grand staircase provides an open-concept, sweeping architectural curve between the main floor and second floor of the home.
The home’s living/great room offers an exceptional, light-filled space in which to entertain guests. The beamed, vaulted ceiling and curved wall of windows, along with lightcolored walls and ceiling, add to the expansive, airy feeling of this space. Shining light-warmtoned mahogany wood floors give additional natural beauty to this room, while a fireplace offers a welcoming focus for chillier seasons.
An elegant dining space feels open and contemporary yet classic in its design. Lighting along the interior edges of the recessed ceiling and tasteful circular inset lights contribute to the bright, clear feeling in the room. Two open doorways into the living room beyond allow for easy movement between these two gathering spaces. A stunning fireplace with hidden cabinets on both sides on one wall of the dining room and warm-toned mahogany floors further contribute to the artistic warmth of this room.
Many details in the design of this home make it an exceptional venue for entertaining. Every room on the first floor of the home features convenient access via French doors to incredible stone balconies, which allows for inside and outside entertaining. The home’s main floor hearth room offers a fireplace and additional comfortable sitting space to gather, relax, or entertain. An artfully designed bar room located just off the living room allows homeowners to effortlessly serve guests while entertaining. This room includes a dumbwaiter to facilitate ease of retrieving wines from the wine room on the lower level.
Homeowners will relish the expansive beauty and convenience of the open concept kitchen. A wraparound countertop island frames the kitchen space, while an additional island workspace nestles within this outer counter space. White countertops are durable and exquisite in appearance, while wood cabinets provide excellent, attractive storage space throughout the kitchen. At one end of the kitchen, a lovely, light-filled informal dining space is edged with a curved wall of windows. These windows offer a restful view of the natural beauty just beyond. An elegant suspended ceiling chandelier light and inset circular ceiling lights provide additional lighting.
The south-facing conservatory offers exceptional opportunities to enjoy the beauty of the home’s natural setting throughout the year. Homeowners will enjoy reading, conversing, or basking in the ample natural light from skylights and windows on each of the curved exterior walls of this relaxing space.
An exquisite library on the home’s main floor includes built-in shelf space for literary collections or display of fine art. Warm-toned African mahogany walls and mahogany floor enhance the magnificent richness of this grand room. A fireplace offers a focal point at the center of one of the longer interior walls of the library. A lighter, creamy white coffered ceiling with tasteful, inset ceiling lights creates an open feeling to counterbalance the warm hues of the wood throughout the room.
The home’s main floor master bedroom suite continues the classic, artful design of the rest of the home. Light-colored walls, ceiling and carpeted floor are accented by the warm, darker-toned wood of the fireplace mantel.
The impressive estate on Lakeside Drive offers a unique and magnificent blend of contemporary yet classic luxury and impeccable design.

THE FINE ART OF JEWELRY INGENUITY ALIVE IN DOWNTOWN WAUKESHA
Ancient Roman Glass is one of the most popular artisanscrafted jewelry lines at the River’s End Gallery in Waukesha, Wisconsin. Even though the gallery has a vast array of jewelry made of many types of materials, the Ancient Roman Glass jewelry’s history makes it our most requested. Ancient Roman glass was originally vessels from the Roman Empire (1st to 6th centuries), which had fallen into the sand or buried in Rome and the Holy Lands. Roman glass was first discovered 2,000 years ago in middle east. The Roman glass’ distinct and overwhelming brilliant aqua hues and patina are due to natural phenomenon after being buried for ages. In Roman times, glass was very fashionable enabling us to utilize these historical pieces to enhance jewelry design.
