put in thick carrera marble counters, or new laminate in white/light neutral. no paint needed.

Heaven on earth. Love the modern interior coupled with the outdoors and the view of the lake, and that sauna. The white, ceramic floors look cold, but they probably gleam and shimmer during the dark winter months.

I agree with above posters: in no way are books "ego trophies." Have you ever actually read/loved a book? Grew up with a professor stepfather, who had a 30,000-book library at home (with the Dewey decimal system). Hated my stepfather, but loved getting lost in the books. Now, I live in a 475 sq Manhattan apartment with built-in bookshelves—always taking down something off the shelf for reference.
