Recently, I bought a new car—my first in over 15 years. Before the ink was dry<br />

on the purchase agreement, I began questioning my decision. Should I have<br />

gone smaller? Should I have bought a used car? Why didn’t I pick a better color?<br />

When I called my older sister for some comforting words, she came through.<br />

“Karen, you always think there is a perfect decision out there,” she said. “And<br />

there isn’t.”<br />

Immediately, I knew she hit the nail on the head. Yes, the options were overwhelming,<br />

but I did lots of research and made a sound choice. Although there<br />

are still days when a convertible pulls up at a light next to me, and I think….<br />

So, when a friend of mine started remodeling her kitchen and asked me for<br />

help, I shared my sister’s advice: There is no one right answer. Look at pictures.<br />

Pick a style. And try to not get overwhelmed with choices. Find something<br />

that works with your budget and makes you—not your neighbor, not your<br />

sister—happy.<br />

And while I always love to offer my two cents, I know for certain you will get<br />

a better answer from a talented designer, contractor, or other professional who<br />

knows the ins and outs of the industry. Spend the time to find the right team.<br />

Communicate your needs and wishes and let them take a bit of the decisionmaking<br />

burden off your shoulders.<br />

a magical<br />

PLACE<br />

Log cabin makeover taps into influence of previous owners<br />

BY KAREN BRADNER | PHOTOS BY GREG GRUPENHOF<br />

18 housetrends.com


Looks can be deceiving...<br />

After an initial approach via a<br />

nearly half-mile-long drive with<br />

equestrian arenas to the left and<br />

to the right, you arrive at what<br />

you might guess to be a centuryold,<br />

hand-hewn log cabin. The<br />

scene is bucolic. The home sits<br />

amidst acres of open land with a<br />

bountiful supply of mature trees,<br />

a rippling pond, and horse stables<br />

and their residents trotting in<br />

nearby fields.<br />

While the trees, horses and<br />

ponds are what they appear, the<br />

main cabin is a bit of an illusion.<br />

Seasoned architects have estimated<br />

the home to be over 100 years<br />

old, but in fact it was built in 1981.<br />

The original owner, Ken<br />

Klosterman, of the Cincinnatibased<br />

Klosterman Baking<br />

Company, and his wife Judith purchased<br />

this 228-acre property in<br />

Goshen Township to accommodate<br />

Judith’s passion for horses.<br />

The log cabin they built here—<br />

with a design and materials from<br />

a firm in northern Quebec—<br />

included a lower level perfect for<br />

Kenneth’s favorite hobby—performing<br />

magic. Dubbed “Salon<br />

de Magie,” this space became<br />

home to the homeowner’s extensive<br />

magic collection, a widely<br />

respected historic compilation<br />

of over 50,000 books, posters,<br />

tricks and memorabilia. ➻<br />

housetrends magazine <strong>2024</strong> 19


Nearby neighbors<br />

Kevin Malof and his wife Jodi lived across<br />

the street from the Klostermans for 20<br />

years.<br />

Once the land was passed on to the<br />

Klostermans’ children, there was interest<br />

from a production builder to place 600<br />

homes on the property. That’s when Kevin<br />

approached the family about buying the<br />

property with a plan to maintain as much<br />

rural land as possible.<br />

He contacted an acquaintance he met<br />

through his son’s school, Dan deStefano<br />

with deStefano Homes and Remodeling.<br />

The two men produced a scenario which<br />

parceled out just under 40 acres for luxury<br />

home development which they dubbed<br />

The Reserves at Stone Pillars Farm, the<br />

site of this year’s Homearama. Next, they<br />

allotted 11 parcels ranging in size from 11<br />

to 30 acres each. The “smaller” of these<br />

are for single residences, the largest is<br />

home to the equestrian facility, White Tail<br />

Eventing. The land includes four miles of<br />

riding and walking trails.<br />

The Malofs would hold on to 60 acres<br />

keeping the setting of the log cabin home<br />

idyllic.<br />

A bit of hesitation<br />

Meanwhile, Jodi was not enthusiastic about<br />

living through a remodel of the log cabin.<br />

“I didn’t want to live in a house with a lot<br />

of small rooms,” she says. “Plus, for 30<br />

years—our whole marriage—we’ve been<br />

renovating.” Between businesses the couple<br />

owns in Loveland—including Curated<br />

Fine Furnishings and Design and Bishop’s<br />

Quarter—and previous homes, she says it’s<br />

been a constant stream of remodeling work.<br />

When Kevin said, “We are going to hire<br />

someone to do it right,” Jodi’s attitude<br />

shifted. That “someone” was the team at<br />

deStefano Homes and Remodeling, led<br />

by Dan and Rocky deStefano. The couple<br />

closed on the property in October of 2022<br />

and construction began the following<br />

February. ➻<br />

Thanks to a reworking of a dormer and roofline, the slanted<br />

wall was removed from the primary bath to make room for<br />

this spa-like replacement.<br />

First things first<br />

“At our first meeting, Kevin asked me<br />

if we could get the home to a point<br />

where Jodi liked it and it was functional,”<br />

Rocky says.<br />

One of the major roadblocks was<br />

the primary bathroom. The ceiling<br />

was angled so steeply that movement<br />

in the space was terribly limited.<br />

“There wasn’t even enough room to<br />

hang a mirror over the vanity,” Jodi<br />

says.<br />

It was important to Jodi, who suffers<br />

with back issues, to have space<br />

for a soaking tub. Not having that,<br />

she says, was a “dealbreaker.” To make<br />

the space work, the construction crew<br />

“completely blew out the dormer and<br />

roof” over the bath area, to now have<br />

the vertical space to include a wet<br />

room with a spacious shower and the<br />

requisite tub.<br />

“That’s now one of my favorite<br />

rooms,” Jodi says.<br />

Respectfully updated<br />

As it was with the primary bath, the<br />

major goal for the entire home, Rocky<br />

says, was to keep the integrity of the<br />

original structure, but bring it up to<br />

spec. “We were shooting for a happy<br />

medium between adding modern<br />

amenities and keeping with the style<br />

of the cabin.”<br />

The log cabin’s construction method<br />

presented challenges to the renovation<br />

team. “The exoskeleton of<br />

these homes is independent of the<br />

interior walls,” Rocky says. “Inside,<br />

a system of beams holds the whole<br />

place up.”<br />

Thankfully, a few obstructing interior<br />

walls were able to be removed.<br />

This made a significant difference to<br />

how the floor plan flowed and functioned.<br />

➻<br />

housetrends magazine <strong>2024</strong> 23


Something old, something new<br />

To hold on to the charm, many of the log cabin’s original elements remained in<br />

place. Existing hardwood floors, true-divided light windows and interior and<br />

exterior doors were refinished.<br />

As for the mechanics, all the plumbing was updated, lighting fixtures were<br />

replaced, a new roof was added and the exterior was re-stained. Plus, the<br />

kitchen and baths were remodeled from the floor up.<br />

The original kitchen had one island, but a wall and an enclosed butler’s pantry<br />

were removed for a more open flow between the kitchen and dining and<br />

living areas. A second island was added which provides additional seating and<br />

when needed, acts as a serving area for the dining room.<br />

A pantry and wall were removed to make room for a second island.<br />

The front dual staircase was kept, but a<br />

new iron stair rail gives it some panache.<br />

held by the magic museum.<br />

Easy does it<br />

The lower level, which had housed much of Klosterman’s collection was converted to what Jodi and<br />

Kevin refer to as their “speakeasy.” Illusions begin as guests access the space, via an elevator, which<br />

(they are told) will make the 83-foot descent into the space previously held by an old mineshaft.<br />

In what had been Klosterman’s museum, there is now a well-equipped bar, poker room, billiards<br />

room and hidden doors and revolving bookcases mixed in for added fun. Across the room, the magician’s<br />

original stage and lighting were left in place and are a huge hit during the couple’s recently<br />

added karaoke nights.<br />

“The fact that it’s a stage with lights makes all the difference,” Kevin says. “People want to be on<br />

stage.” The couple has collected old keyboards and guitars so that performers can really rock out.<br />

“You get to see a whole new side of your friends,” Jodi says. ➻<br />

housetrends magazine <strong>2024</strong> 25


More horsing around<br />

This newly improved home has revealed<br />

a whole new side of Jodi as well. Possibly,<br />

in channeling the spirit of the previous<br />

lady of the house, she has taken up, and<br />

taken to, horseback riding on Annie, her<br />

12-year-old Tennessee Walker.<br />

“I have never been around horses in my<br />

life,” she says. “At first I was nervous. But<br />

now I groom her, tack her and do everything<br />

myself.”<br />

Kevin, who has been around horses his<br />

whole life, saddles up Levi, his 5-yearold<br />

Rocky Mountain Horse. The couple’s<br />

sons, Max and Alex, who are in their 20s,<br />

don’t ride, but given the setting of their<br />

parents’ compound, that could change in<br />

the future.<br />

Happy trails<br />

Completing construction in November<br />

of 2023, the Malofs are thrilled with how<br />

their new home maintains the character<br />

that its original owners created, yet<br />

provides them with the modern conveniences<br />

they require. That was the mission<br />

with which the deStefano team was<br />

tasked.<br />

“We gave them our vision and they<br />

met every challenge, “Jodi says. “They<br />

were amazing. When we first considered<br />

buying this property, I was definitely<br />

hesitant, but now, I love it here!”<br />

RENEWED WITH<br />

respect<br />

Home steeped in history gets age-appropriate makeover<br />

BY KAREN BRADNER | PHOTOS BY DALE CLARK/ARC PICTURES<br />

Anyone who purchases a home built in the 1880s must have a good dose of<br />

respect for the story that has been unfolding within its walls for nearly 150<br />

years. Fortunately, the <strong>Columbus</strong> neighborhood of German Village happens<br />

to have a slew of homeowners who have the honor of carrying on this community’s<br />

rich traditions.<br />

One such homeowner, Meghan Carey, is a devotee of the area. These<br />

brick-paved streets have been her home for several years, as she moved<br />

from one address to another within the community. This is where she met<br />

her husband Michael (at Lindy’s) and where she is raising her two young sons.<br />

“I love the walkability, character, charm, and especially the people,” Carey<br />

says. “There’s a wonderful variety here, we’re not all in the same box.” ➻<br />

fencing and paver brick sidewalk are<br />

quintessentially German Village.<br />

Interior re-design<br />

The uniformity of the village’s red-brick exteriors, wrought iron fencing and tree-lined streets<br />

are an undoubtable draw for Carey and others who live here or visit the area. But as an interior<br />

designer and owner of City Park Interiors, it’s inside one of these homes, where she had fun putting<br />

her own stamp.<br />

“I wanted the home to be happy, open and fresh, but honor the traditional,” she says.<br />

Previous owners had converted what had been a connected, side-by-side two-family home to a<br />

single residence. But a staircase running right through the center of the home, dissecting living<br />

spaces, remained. It was the suggestion of architect Andy Melaragno, to move the staircase. That<br />

was a game changer.<br />

“Moving that staircase was really huge,” says Carey. “Before the front two rooms were unusable.<br />

It was like walking through a tunnel to get through to the back of the home.”<br />

During the extensive remodel, the interior of the home was almost completely gutted. New<br />

windows and new flooring were installed. The load-bearing brick wall, which originally separated<br />

the two units, still stands but is now painted a soft gray.<br />

Replacing the original center staircase, with this grand version, added both beauty and<br />

function to the home. To the right is a painting by artist Paul-Henri Bourguignon.<br />

A burled wood island adds a traditional touch to the kitchen with its white perimeter cabinetry and marble countertops.<br />

While renovation efforts were underway, the couple rented a house right around<br />

the corner. “The house sat vacant for six to nine months while we were working on<br />

plans,” Carey says.<br />

Working with Andy Melaragno along with Todd Schmidt and the team at<br />

Renovations Unlimited, the decision was made to add eight feet to the upper floor<br />

to allow for the reconfiguration of three smaller bedrooms. Now this floor features<br />

four bedrooms with a primary suite moving from the back of the home to the front.<br />

On the main floor, a larger addition addressed many of the homeowners’ concerns.<br />

“We wanted a nice big kitchen,” Carey says. We wanted a mudroom and a big<br />

walk-in closet. Storage was key. We really wanted to maximize that.” ➻<br />

housetrends magazine <strong>2024</strong> 33


Good timing<br />

Construction concluded in December<br />

of 2019, shortly before the effects<br />

of Covid-19 would change how<br />

the remodeling industry—and the<br />

world—would function. Fortunately,<br />

Meghan, Michael, and their infant<br />

son, had a haven of just under 3000<br />

square feet where they could isolate<br />

and grow accustomed to their new<br />

family dynamics.<br />

While supply chain issues would<br />

delay getting many of the interior furnishings<br />

in place, the home now had a<br />

footprint that functioned beautifully<br />

for the young family.<br />

“We wanted it to feel warm and<br />

cozy when you walk in the front<br />

door,” Carey says. “The entry serves<br />

as an open walkway to the rest of the<br />

house.”<br />

A wall that previously held what<br />

Carey says were “useless built-ins”<br />

has been replaced with gray-painted<br />

woodworking that serves multiple<br />

functions including display shelving<br />

and drawers for much needed storage.<br />

“There are mittens and hockey<br />

gear in those drawers,” she says.<br />

In between is an upholstered banquette<br />

that serves as a handy spot<br />

for removing shoes, or on occasion<br />

listening to Michael as he tickles the<br />

ivories. Renovation plans reserved<br />

this specific spot for the baby grand<br />

piano Meghan gave him for a recent<br />

birthday.<br />

On the other side of the original<br />

brick wall is a formal living room.<br />

While many of her clients might want<br />

to see patterns and colors match a<br />

bit more than she does, Carey has no<br />

issue mixing geometric, floral, solid<br />

and textured fabrics. The overall take<br />

is by artist Marti Steffy.<br />

3<br />

of this room shows the designer’s<br />

penchant for “wanting the space to<br />

feel collected.” This is a space where<br />

she gravitates to on those rare occasions<br />

of alone time.<br />

Between the living room and the<br />

kitchen, stands a dining room. “I<br />

wanted an actual formal dining<br />

room,” Carey says. “Not a lot of people<br />

are doing dining rooms anymore,<br />

which I understand, but find a bit<br />

sad.” To make gatherings more inviting<br />

and encourage guests to linger,<br />

the designer selected a 72-inch round<br />

table and comfortable seating for six.<br />

On the opposite side of the wall,<br />

still in the footprint of the original<br />

existing space, is the striking new<br />

staircase, which makes the traffic<br />

pattern make so much more sense.<br />

And just down the hall is a half bath<br />

decked out in gold and blue geometric<br />

Schumacher wallpaper.<br />

“A powder room is always a good<br />

place to have fun with design choices,”<br />

says Carey.<br />

The back of the home, which<br />

includes a breakfast nook, kitchen,<br />

great room and living area, is a lightfilled<br />

space. In a similar fashion as in<br />

other rooms of the home, a dramatic<br />

light fixture hangs from the center of<br />

this room’s ceiling.<br />

“Ten-foot ceilings allow for larger<br />

fixtures,” Carey says. “I prefer to use<br />

statement lighting over can lighting<br />

anytime I can.” Also, as it is in other<br />

rooms of this home, formal drapery<br />

panels flank the large windows and<br />

French doors.<br />

“I love drapes, I think they soften<br />

the room,” Carey says. “And I like<br />

using pattern.” ➻<br />

1 This great room, with its cathedral ceiling and French doors, was an addition to the original home. 2 The primary bedroom and<br />

bath were relocated to the front of the home during the renovation. 3 The powder room’s vanity was originally a dresser the<br />

homeowner repurposed. 4 The painting over the great room sofa is by artist Michael McEwan.<br />

An existing garage was removed and replaced with this flagstone patio and grass courtyard<br />

and a new garage closer to the rear alley.<br />

Courtyard with previous garage<br />

Pops of color<br />

While most of the furniture, cabinetry, woodwork, and window treatments<br />

stick to a neutral palette of soft beiges, warm grays and caramels, carefully<br />

selected pieces of art add inviting bold splashes in each room.<br />

“Art is my way of bringing color into the house,” Carey says.<br />

Even in the back courtyard, the furnishings adorn elegant white slipcovers.<br />

But here the art comes in the form of ivy-covered fencing, rows of arbor vitae,<br />

and overflowing containers of annuals and succulents.<br />

This inviting space is a favorite warm weather hangout for the young men<br />

of the house. It was enlarged once an existing garage was torn down and a new<br />

one was built closer to the rear alley.<br />

And when the mood strikes for the family to step out, it’s an easy walk to dinner<br />

at one of the community’s many fine restaurants, or a stroll through nearby<br />

Schiller Park—creating family traditions in this community that happens to be<br />

steeped in tradition.<br />

WESTERN<br />

inspiration<br />

Custom-built home artfully blends rustic elements<br />

BY SYDNE SANTO | PHOTOS BY AARON FARRIER<br />

They say inspiration can come from anywhere, and for this family of five living<br />

in Greater Dayton, the inspiration for their dream home came from the<br />

mountains of Colorado. After spending multiple vacations skiing the slopes of<br />

this state, the family fell in love with the mountain-style homes they saw there.<br />

Wanting to bring a piece of that rustic elegance back to Ohio, the homeowner<br />

began her own visionary journey, meticulously collecting photos<br />

and references as her North Star. To pull all these elements together, she<br />

partnered with Dan DeVol of Daniel DeVol Custom Builder and his team<br />

of expert craftsmen.<br />

“When it came time for my team to join, the homeowners already had<br />

a clear idea about what they were looking for,” DeVol explains. “We<br />

specialize in helping our clients select the right materials that bring their<br />

vision to life.” ➻<br />

1 A mix of woods, coppers and whites makes for a warm, inviting<br />

kitchen. 2 A climate-controlled wine cellar is conveniently located<br />

behind the bar area. 3 Wooden buttresses epitomize the western<br />

architecture goal the homeowner was after. 4 An abundance of windows<br />

helps flood the home with natural light.<br />

Carefully crafted<br />

The home’s exterior is framed by real<br />

stone, which is then carried inside<br />

throughout the kitchen and great room.<br />

DeVol sourced the stone from out of state<br />

to get the precise color needed for the<br />

project. Hand-scraped maple hardwood<br />

floors, and custom millwork throughout<br />

the home further embrace the natural<br />

design.<br />

The kitchen features an array of materials<br />

and textures, combining contrasting<br />

wood, stone, and metal into a harmonious<br />

fusion. The farmhouse sink, which<br />

looks as though it was dropped in directly<br />

from one of the homeowner’s inspiration<br />

pictures, is custom-made of copper.<br />

This metal acts as an accent theme in the<br />

kitchen, culminating in the hand-made<br />

hammered copper range hood.<br />

An entertainer’s haven<br />

At first glance, the bright kitchen, spacious<br />

great room, and sunny outdoor<br />

space might feel like the go-to place<br />

for entertaining, but the family’s secret<br />

showstopper is their wine cellar and basement<br />

bar.<br />

Thanks to the couple’s many trips<br />

to California, their wine collection has<br />

grown extensively over the years, resulting<br />

in a need for storage. “The interior<br />

of the wine cellar is lined with reclaimed<br />

barn wood for a rustic touch,” DeVol says.<br />

“We coupled that with a modern display<br />

structure that showcases each wine label<br />

so they can really absorb their collection.”<br />

A large glass window looks out over the<br />

rest of the bar which is made from white<br />

oak. The bar is finished with a custom<br />

countertop, and features ample storage<br />

for everything from spirits to specialty<br />

glasses. ➻<br />

housetrends magazine <strong>2024</strong> 45


Fit for function<br />

A functional layout was key for this family, ensuring each room had a purpose<br />

and they had plenty of places to relax.<br />

The kitchen touts a hidden walk-in pantry with an oversized lazy Susan,<br />

while built-in storage keeps countertops free from mess and clutter. And, to<br />

stop any potential clutter before it enters the home, a mudroom lines the<br />

garage entryway with designated locker-style cubbies for each of their children.<br />

A combined laundry-office-craft room serves as a catch-all for the family’s<br />

day-to-day activities, while the upstairs level serves as a playground for their<br />

three children. The space was intentionally made versatile enough to grow as<br />

they did, supporting their changing hobbies and interests. The dance studio, a<br />

once-popular place for their children to practice their dance and cheer routines,<br />

has since been transformed into the preferred dressing room for school dances,<br />

while the craft room now often serves as a mess-free nail salon. ➻<br />

Comfy seating and a fireplace give the upper level outdoor space year-round appeal.<br />

hood ties in to other copper elements in the kitchen. 4<br />

The back yard features a generously-sized pool, waterfall, hot tub, pizza oven and fire pit.<br />

housetrends magazine <strong>2024</strong> 49


The stone portico to the right leads to a four-car garage.<br />

Soak up the sun<br />

Another favorite is their expansive back yard, complete with a two-story outdoor living space, a<br />

pool and hot tub, and backyard bar. The pool, with its stone wall and waterfall, is a popular spot<br />

for their kids and their friends. The stone wall is often used as a jumping point, while the hot tub<br />

makes the outdoor space enjoyable year-round.<br />

“If we’re not in the kitchen, we spend a lot of our time outside. No matter where we start in the<br />

house, we always seem to end up out there,” the homeowner laughs. “One of the reasons we bought<br />

our land was for the sunsets, so whether we’re lighting a bonfire or having a glass of wine, we’re<br />

probably ending our days outside.”<br />

The landscaping was carefully chosen by Doug Rhinehart and his team at Grandma’s Gardens<br />

to balance the need for easy maintenance with regional suitability. Again, referencing their rustic<br />

vision, aspens and similar plants surround their home, bringing a bit of Colorado into Ohio.<br />

An extended family<br />

“I worked with Dan and his team almost every day for two years, so it got to the point where they<br />

all felt like family,” says the homeowner.<br />

One key member of the “family” was Bruce Landes, who worked on the DeVol team as their cabinetmaker<br />

for close to 20 years. “Bruce was brilliant; I’d bring the wildest ideas to him, and he was<br />

able to run with them and bring back something better than I had ever imagined,” the homeowner<br />

reminisces. Bruce passed away in May of 2022, but his knowledge and keen eye are still celebrated<br />

in the family’s dream home.<br />

Today, the family makes great use of every room in the house, enjoying both solo time in their<br />

individual spaces and time together outside or in the great room.<br />

“Designing and building our dream home is one of the best experiences I’ve ever had,” the homeowner<br />

proudly shares. “I wanted to create something timeless for our family, and now we get to live<br />

in something we love for years to come.”<br />

Room Addition<br />

We added a 900-square-foot room addition to this<br />

split level. The new great room, guest room, bath, and<br />

kitchen expansion has vastly increased the entertaining<br />

value of this cozy eclectic 50’s home. Designed for<br />

comfort, this new work has an old soul with reclaimed<br />

doors, exposed brick, and charm. The east-facing<br />

wall of windows has brought new layers of light to the<br />

owners morning routine!<br />

Kitchen Renovation<br />

This “entertainer’s” kitchen was enlarged by<br />

borrowing space from the dining room and then<br />

brightened with a new window. Cambria countertops<br />

accentuate the white oak island. Painted custom inset<br />

cabinets with varying hardware and lighting options<br />

reflect the owner’s style.<br />

First Floor Renovation<br />

Making the confined first floor open and more usable<br />

was the goal for this Worthington Hills home. The<br />

kitchen/dining area was opened up by removing<br />

multiple walls, tripling cabinet and counter space in<br />

the process. A reconfigured first-floor laundry, an<br />

integrated work space, and wet bar enhance the final<br />

product.<br />
