2.) Single Level Living x 2
tart with a single level 2,923 square foot St. Andrews floorplan ... increase the size of the house, add room for a third car in the garage, a private entry, window wall and bump out the kitchen, create an extra Living Room ... just the tip of the iceberg for one of our most creative Your Home. Your Way.™ residences to date!
Families come in all shapes and sizes, and this St. Andrews had the “bones” necessary to start the process of creating a truly unique residence that would meet the lifestyle needs of this blended family.
The desire of the client was to create the feeling of two entirely separate living spaces under a single level rooftop. Mom and Dad on one side of the home, older daughter and granddaughter living on the other side. The need for space and privacy, but the desire to reside at the same address. Let the Your Home. Your Way.™ creative process begin!
The team successfully constructed a private entrance on the right side of the house, next to the garage. From the street, the entrance is visible but not compromising in overall curb appeal.
Now the REALLY creative stuff. Extending the garage expanded the 2 car garage into a 3 car garage, allowing each adult to park inside the garage. Notice as well the 2 separate entries – right stair leads into daughter's "home" and the left stair leads into the parent's "home". Perfect balance of family and private life
First, the team flipped the footprint to accommodate the private entry need, and also to accommodate the 8 foot bump out and expansion of the Breakfast Nook – check out the brilliant Kitchen/Breakfast Nook. Located off the Breakfast Nook is a custom deck, expanding the interior living space to the great outdoors...
A more intimate setting for elegant dining is easily accomplished with the addition of French doors and a smaller room entry area.
On the daughter’s side of the home, a Master Bedroom was added, as well as a homey Living Room and a butler area to accommodate a small refrigerator, sink and cooking area. A secondary bedroom was also created for the granddaughter.
Completing the look and feel of this mini “home” is the sense of arrival in the foyer area, accessible from the exterior and the garage. Both families enjoy the same amenities, yet separate lives in this unique floorplan.
On the other side of the home, Mom and Dad requested separate water closets off their master suite.
What began as a conversation with a knowledgeable sales counselor, a pen and a set of plans, ended with this one of a kind home for a family that knew what they wanted! What can Your Home. Your Way.™ do for you?
