Stonegate Homes

Inspired by stone cottages found in the French countryside, this home features a symmetrical front facade centered around an elliptical arch entry porch. The sloping shed roof dormers, stone facade, and board and batten shutters pay homage to the traditional French Provincial style, while the two-story height windows at the stairwell introduces transitional flair.

Inside the Breakfast Nook

This composed breakfast nook exudes approachable elegance, framed by architectural detail and natural textures. A large white oak wrapped cased opening defines the entrance, creating a warm threshold into the space. Surrounded by expansive black-clad windows, this nook embraces natural light and outdoor views while maintaining a grounded, cozy feel.

Insignia Homes

This timeless Tudor-style residence by Insignia Homes blends classic architecture with carefully curated details for a living experience that feels refined and effortlessly comfortable. Spanning 7,269 square feet, every element of this home has been thoughtfully designed with enduring style and livable elegance in mind.

Inside the Kitchen

The Kitchen seamlessly flows from the Great Room, where soft neutral cabinetry wraps the perimeter and contrasts beautifully with a dark-stained white oak island. Countertops and a full-height backsplash in Bianco California quartzite add a layer of understated luxury. The centerpiece is a striking 10-foot-wide custom Tudor arch range hood and two 36" La Cornue French ranges—both a functional and a visual anchor. Thoughtful details include Rohl plumbing fixtures, unlacquered brass hardware, a fireclay apron-front sink, and cabinet-paneled appliances. A hidden door leads to the fully appointed Service Pantry, with deep green floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, quartz countertops, and integrated appliances, while a separate Butler’s Pantry across the hall echoes the kitchen's refined palette.

Legend Homes

This home is a quiet dialogue between European symmetry and Japanese restraint — a balance of structure and softness. Steep gabled rooflines and formal proportions ground the architecture in timeless tradition, while natural materials and weathered finishes introduce warmth and a lived-in authenticity rooted in Wabi Sabi principles.

Inside the Foyer

The intentional placement of expansive floor-set windows provides a connection with the exterior while bathing the interior with natural light. The result is a home that feels both intentional and effortless—calmly composed, light-washed, and deeply connected to its natural surroundings. The design harmonizes the joyful energy of color with the soulful, organic beauty of wabi-sabi. Rooted in the Japanese philosophy of embracing transience and imperfection, the design celebrates authenticity, nature, and simplicity—infused with a vibrant, contemporary twist.

Natural materials like weathered wood, zellige tile, and linen are paired with a rich, earthy color palette accented by pops of vivid hues — ochre, indigo, oxblood and moss— to create warmth and personality. Patina, texture, and asymmetry are embraced, allowing each object and surface to tell a story over time.

Sipple Homes

A white Georgian exterior of Hardie board siding, louvered shutters, gas lanterns, and a custom arched front door will welcome you home after long day. The interior features a bit of a twist with mid-century modern accents and lots of architectural interest.

Inside the Laundry Room

Window lined on two walls; the laundry is bright and airy in themes of blue and neutrals. SW 7602 Indigo Batik cabinets complement the grey and blue Dal Tile floral floor tile. The white, abstract light fixture also brings in floral themes while matching the matte white sink plumbing fixtures. The shiplap island and cabinets have the same Haven White Honed Quartz tops as the pantry. Custom-built dog wash station, nestled just inside the laundry room, is lined with plaid tile and furnished with luxe gold plumbing.
