This beautiful contemporary home boasts the ideal layout for a growing family. The homeowners wanted outdoor living and unobstructed views with room to expand. Stepped-up ceilings, indoor/outdoor spaces, and flexibility create an incredible home without extravagant expense. While the main floor living area is wide open, the engineered oak hardwood floors, authentic stone fireplace, and oversized windows create a cozy atmosphere that connects you to the outdoors. This home’s architectural and interior designs are incredibly flexible, and plans are to add extra living space to the lower level, including two guest bedrooms, a bathroom, a family room, a den, and a kitchenette.

This large estate house was carefully crafted to compliment the rolling hillsides of the Midwest. Horizontal board & batten facades are sheltered by long runs of hipped roofs, centrally divided by the home’s singular gabled wall. At the foyer, this gable takes the form of a classic three-part archway. Knightswood features a double-sided fireplace, two garages, screened porch with stone fireplace, and ample entertainment space.

Bayside clients spent years updating an existing onsite residence before asking Visbeen Architects to re-envision their home. They had previously added to the house and cultivated a wonderfully landscaped yard but wanted to expand the footprint by utilizing a more efficient, functional layout.
