CUSTOM HOME :: We’re always grateful when we have the opportunity to work with a family to build their dream home not once, but twice. This family had enjoyed years of memories in their original Oakley home, but when an oversized lot became available just a couple blocks north of downtown Hinsdale they jumped at the chance to be closer to town and build a home that would perfectly fit their current lifestyle. Armed with inspiration, we designed a transitional home that combines stone, board and batten, shiplap and Hardie lap siding. The stately entrance features a covered bluestone porch and oversized windows, providing an inviting first glance at the extraordinary 6 BR interior. The floorplan maximizes outdoor entertaining space with the family room leading out to both a bluestone patio and an outdoor covered porch with fireplace.

CUSTOM HOME :: Situated on a quiet cul de sac just steps from Hinsdale Central High School, Madison Elementary School and town, this 66 x125 lot was perfectly suited for our clients. They approached us knowing they wanted to move to the suburbs, but unsure of exactly where. We helped them to narrow in on Hinsdale, and this fabulous lot. Since then, they set off designing this charming exterior with our architect - and we've worked to provide them an interior floorplan perfect for their growing family. More about this home HERE.

CUSTOM HOME :: A charming corner lot in West Hinsdale was the perfect spot for this transitional designed 4 BR home. The exterior takes advantage of the corner location and focuses on clean lines, combining clapboard Hardie siding with brick and cedar shake accents, oversized windows and a covered front porch.

They chose to forego a formal dining area for a more casual flow with an open family room and kitchen both filled with windows. The space opens up to an outdoor entertaining area on the back patio. In addition to the functional layout, this remarkable home is filled with high-end custom details throughout such as elevated trim, specialty lighting, built-ins, beams and a coffered ceiling.
