The 45th Annual Sophisticated Snoop home tour might more accurately<br />
be called the home and art tour. The homes, themselves, are works of<br />
art. But so also are the owners’ collections of work by local and internationally<br />
renowned artists. Proceeds benefit American Martyrs School in<br />

A French view<br />
This custom contemporary Tree Section home was designed with personal touches<br />
throughout. After stepping through its lush front gardens, past the French limestone<br />
fountain, you’ll find yourself transported to Provence. It took six years to perfect this<br />
French-inspired residence, from the artistic owner’s stained glass creations in the grand<br />
front door to the hand-sculpted herringbone oak floors in the dining room. Notice the imported<br />
French limestone fireplace and mantle in the living room, hand-carved by local<br />
craftsmen. Don’t miss the lower level, custom-built wine cellar, which stores an impressive<br />
8,500 bottles of curated vintages. The hobby room reveals an extensive model train collection,<br />
and the kids’ lounge features upholstered walls and its own kitchen. The top floor’s<br />
arched entrance to the master suite is encased in maple, and the hand-painted ceiling is a<br />
showstopper. The kitchen is an open floor plan and highlights hand-painted panels to further<br />
enhance the French interiors. The home serves to exhibit the art loving owners extensive<br />
collection of paintings by their favorite artists. Vive la France!<br />
