Hillcrest Residence

Recalling the Shingle-style designs that dotted America’s East Coast at the turn of the century, the Hillcrest offers classic comfort and style. Four large columns and a rounded window flank the entranceway and welcome residents and guests alike. Inside, an abundance of windows flood the main rooms with light, from the centrally located kitchen and open living room to the first-floor master suite. Two additional levels include a second floor with two bedrooms and a walk-out lower level with two additional bedrooms and a family room.

Built by Newman Construction.

Kensington Residence

Last year, we brought to your attention a LEED certified residence we designed in Grosse Pointe Park, MI called the Kensington. This beautiful infill design is now fully completed, so here are the finished photos. A few words about this design...

Who says they don’t make them like the used to? This charming Craftsman-inspired design, built to fit into an established city neighborhood but at home anywhere, proves otherwise. Double columns and three inset windows flank the entranceway, which leads into a classic Four-Square floor plan. The foyer, with its classic wooden staircase, leads to the living, dining and kitchen area on one side, and the den and hearth room on the other. The design and classic screened-in porch take its cues from the past, but the open kitchen and hearth room reflect today’s casual lifestyles. Upstairs is the master suite, four additional family bedrooms and three convenient baths.
