Upstairs

The staircase is the eye-catching visual centerpiece of the house.  Straight up the stairs is the landing which provides entry through French doors into the game room.  Then up the remaining stairs to the top level where there are four bedrooms.

All rooms upstairs are carpeted with commercial-grade designer carpet tiles.  Individual tiles can be pulled up for cleaning or replacement.

One side of the vaulted game room has a built-in entertainment system to house an entire surround-sound theater system and whole-house audio system.  The window frames are designed to provide complete "blackout" shading for movie watching in the daytime.   The other side of the gameroom is designed for a pool table or foosball table.  The game room is positioned over the porta-cachere and is double insulated to make sure loud movie watching, or play, do not impose on activity downstairs.   The game room is flanked by large window seats on both ends.
