We build cottages with classic exterior details, Simpson wood front doors, proper foyers, lots of light and an open floor plan.
Every cottage has a fireplace and a patio built at floor level and entered through french doors,to extend your living space and bringing the outside in, on a well landscaped lot.
We never use vinyl as cladding. Vertical grain hemlock, cedar shakes and cement board encapsulated in quality paint are time tested and look best.
Solid surfaces last, that’s why we only use hardwood, quality laminates, ceramic/porcelain tile, or stone on our floors. Windows, the eyes of a home, are wood authentic divided light with a low-e energy panel.
We love Ikea kitchens, they are efficient, look great, and can easily be remodeled in the future. We only use stainless appliances. Our baths have Kohler cast iron tubs and shower basins with tile walls. Our doors are all solid core with quality hinges and knobs. Every room is wired for cable and internet.
Energy efficient, we use Zip Wall Sheathing with a special acrylic tape applied to all the joints virtually eliminating outside air infiltration. We place R25 in the walls and R38 in the ceiling, and use high efficiency gas furnaces.
Last, we give you lots of storage, even if you don’t see it in the floor plan; it’s added through crafty built-ins. Well placed tile accents, wainscot, wide moldings, recessed lighting and appropriate lighting fixtures finish out the details.
