The owners of this beautiful home and property discovered the talents of the Fred Parker Company "Design-Build" team on Houzz.com. Their dream was to restore and renovate an old barn into a new guest house and to design and build an elaborate outdoor kitchen (See Separate Houzz Project- "Rustic-Luxe" Guest House- Barn Renovation ). The elaborate “Gourmet” Outdoor-Kitchen was designed and built to be utilized with their existing outdoor living and swimming areas. The husband loved outdoor cooking and wanted to fully incorporate all the latest accessories which included a stone pizza oven, gas grill, smoker, refrigerator, sink, storage, and leathered granite countertops. The structure was architecturally designed to blend with the existing residence, which included plaster stucco finish, steep pitch hip roof with turned overhang, custom metal gutters, and 12’ ceilings with decorative ceiling beams.

Stone two-sided fireplace with up lighting underneath the top stone. Hardwood floors in the formal living room, porcelain wood grain tiles for the kitchen, dining, wine cellar and exterior patio. Pool and backyard landscaping are the only previous features that remained from the original home, minus a few walls on the interior and newly installed waterless grass for the ground cover. Designed with a standing seam metal roof, with internal drainage system for hidden gutters design. Rain chain and rain barrels for rain harvesting. Retrofitted with Hardy Frames prefabricated shear walls for up to date earthquake safety. Opening both walls to the backyard, there are now two 14' folding doors allowing the inside and outside to merge. http://www.hardyframe.com/HF/index.html Amy J Smith Photography

This classic formal design focuses on the rear wall. The wall is a beautifully proportioned multi-height wall, faced in Leuder limestone. As the stonewalls gracefully stair step down, shorter columns serve as the base to four Frank Lloyd Wright inspired cast stone bowls.

Our client-centered approach ensures each project is tailored to meet your specific needs, large or small. Recently, we completed a comprehensive exterior and interior renovation that demonstrates our commitment to quality and attention to detail. For the exterior, we began by thoroughly cleaning the roofing of the house, garage, and barn, removing moss, mildew, and algae to restore the surfaces to their original condition. We then meticulously prepped and painted the exteriors, ensuring a fresh and appealing look. The installation of new entry doors with custom hardware added both functionality and aesthetic value. Attention was given to replacing exterior trim lumber and deck steps, addressing all discussed and required areas. The deck and steps leading to the lake were power washed and sealed, providing durability and a polished finish. We extended this care to the gazebo, cleaning, sealing, and rescreening it as needed, ensuring it remained a welcoming outdoor space. To enhance the property's maintenance, we cleaned rust stains from the house and installed a Gutter Rx Gutter Guard System on the house, garage, and barn, preventing future debris build-up and water damage. Additionally, we trimmed and pruned the trees surrounding the deck, stairs, gazebo, and rear roof, maintaining both the health of the trees and the beauty of the property. This project exemplifies our dedication to client satisfaction, ensuring every detail is managed with precision and care. At Homeowner Services of Michigan, we are passionate about transforming your home, inside and out, to create spaces that are both functional and beautiful.

"The three HeatTrak mats shown in these pictures protect the front door entrance to our home in North Central Pennsylvania. With inadequate insulation in our attic and a Northwest front exposure, the steps leading to our front door were always covered with ice for most of the winter. The melting snow from the roof would overflow the gutters and pool on the front steps and landing freezing solid. I used salt but that only degraded the concrete steps and landing. Non salt ice melters worked but made a real mess as we tracked their residue into the house. Then three years ago I found your HeatTrak mats online and bought our first two. This year I added the carpeted mat making three total heated mats. As you can see we now have a safe and ice-free path to our front door. No more slipping, sliding and yes falling (that happened to me before the mats.) I think we'll add another mat next fall. Thanks for a great product." - Mark and Ruth
