Mid-sized transitional gray two-story wood house exterior idea in Orange County with a hip roof and a shingle roof

Three window bays, modeled after Turkish 'cumba' (pronounced chumba) bring in daylight and add counter space in the dining, kitchen, and den. A fourth is a window seat at the upper level guest casita. The rich wood of the 'cumbas' and deck add warmth to the cool beige stucco exterior. Rocks from the site conceal the concrete foundation.

The owners of this farm and residence property wanted a storage building for farm maintenance and other equipment as well as storage space. Featuring 3 over size, insulated garage doors and fully clad in painted steel the barn was designed to be a secure and low maintenance utility structure. Simple details such as matching the roof pitch, overhang size and colors of the existing residence ensured that the building would fit in with the rest of the farm. Careful attention was paid to utilities and site work to allow for a resilient and flexible space that will accommodate the farm needs that change with the seasons.

MH Advantage ( Manufactured Home Advantage ) program is a new program created by Fanny Mae that allows for financing of homes similar to site built homes and including down payment as low as 3%,. MH Advantage Homes should have a lower price and customizable finishes of modern manufactured homes. MH Advantage homes are built to blend into traditional neighborhoods. MH Advantage homes are homes built to Federal Building Code that need to include features like low profile foundation, higher pitch roofs ( 4/12 ) garage or carport, dormers, porch, and drywall throughout the home. When a home is built to the MH Advantage standards, a sticker will be applied to the home that identifies the home as a MH Advantage home and allows Appraisers to choose the most appropriate comparable sales, which – unlike standard Manufactured Homes — may include sales of site-built homes.

This dramatic vaulted great room centers on a soaring stone fireplace and a wall of peaked windows overlooking the trees, creating a striking mountain modern focal point. Reclaimed Wood Paneling covers the entire vaulted ceiling, and Reclaimed Wood Box Beams form the exposed trusses overhead, bringing natural texture and warmth into this open, light filled space. Every piece of reclaimed wood at Manomin Resawn Timbers is salvaged from 19th and early 20th century barns, factories, and warehouses, structures built during the Industrial Revolution from old growth hardwoods that grew slower and denser than the trees available today. Through our detailed process of denailing, kiln drying, and precision milling, that history is preserved and prepared for a new life in modern homes. Whether you are a homebuilder, a home remodeling contractor, a homeowner, or a designer planning a space like this one, Manomin Resawn Timbers has reclaimed wood paneling and box beams to fit your vision. Visit our showroom in Hugo, MN or reach out to us with a call or a message to discover the antique charm of reclaimed wood.

From the street, the facade offers up many classic Bungalow characteristics. Wide eaves and a low roof line give the illusion of a more modest structure. Inside, however, the rooms are spacious and efficiently divided. Photo: Adrienne DeRosa Photography © 2014 Houzz

The definitive idea behind this project was to create a modest country house that was traditional in outward appearance yet minimalist from within. The harmonious scale, thick wall massing and the attention to architectural detail are reminiscent of the enduring quality and beauty of European homes built long ago. It features a custom-built Spanish Colonial- inspired house that is characterized by an L-plan, low-pitched mission clay tile roofs, exposed wood rafter tails, broad expanses of thick white-washed stucco walls with recessed-in French patio doors and casement windows; and surrounded by native California oaks, boxwood hedges, French lavender, Mexican bush sage, and rosemary that are often found in Mediterranean landscapes. An emphasis was placed on visually experiencing the weight of the exposed ceiling timbers and the thick wall massing between the light, airy spaces. A simple and elegant material palette, which consists of white plastered walls, timber beams, wide plank white oak floors, and pale travertine used for wash basins and bath tile flooring, was chosen to articulate the fine balance between clean, simple lines and Old World touches.

The existing multi-level deck was large but lived small. The hot tub, angles, and wide steps occupied valuable sitting space. Wood Wise was asked to replace the deck with a covered porch. One challenge for the covered porch is the recessed location off the family room. There are three different pitched roofs to tie into. Also, there are two second floor windows to be considered. The solution is the low-pitched shed roof covered with a rubber membrane. Two Velux skylights are installed in the vaulted ceiling to light up the interior of the home. The white painted Plybead ceiling helps to make it even lighter. The new porch features a corner stone fireplace with a stone hearth and wood mantel. The floor is 5/4” x 4” pressure treated tongue & groove pine. The open grilling deck is conveniently located on the porch level. Fortress metal railing and lighted steps add style and safety. The end result is a beautiful porch that is perfect for intimate family times as well as larger gatherings.

The project consisted of a complete renovation of a 1940’s home in Darien and the addition of a two car Garage, Kitchen and Family Room wing. The 8,300 sqft colonial home, in plan, takes the shape of an elle, and reveals a formal facade from the street. However, moving around to the rear of the home, the scale begins to break down, resembling a farmhouse from the period, with a low- pitched, covered porch, and modestly detailed columns. The cedar clapboard siding, wood roof and Chippendale detailing on the exterior porches reflect the quality of the home. Barry A. Hyman
