With a narrow driveway and leaning concrete retaining walls, parking was a major challenge at this 1938 brick Tudor on Spokane's South Hill. Crumbling concrete stairs added another layer of difficulty, and after a particularly rough winter, the homeowners were ready for a change. The failing concrete walls were replaced with stacked boulders, which created space for a new, wider driveway. Natural stone steps offer access to the backyard, while the new front stairs and sidewalk provide a safe route to the front door. The original iron railings were preserved and modified to be reused with the new stairs.

This carriage house, nestled on a corner lot, combines functionality and charm effortlessly. Its flexible layout and accessible features make it a standout choice. The lower level features a double garage and adaptable living space, while a transparent staircase adds a touch of uniqueness.
A welcoming porch seamlessly connects indoor and outdoor living, bridging the gap between the living and dining areas. Inside, the cocaine dining and living room exude style, complemented by a sleek modern kitchen island and a well-integrated butler's pantry.
At the rear, a serene bedroom awaits, complete with a luxurious master bathroom. Convenience is prioritized with a dedicated laundry room.
Located in an idyllic setting, this residence offers both peace and convenience, making it an ideal option for those seeking modern living at its finest.

S+H Construction and Architect Will Ruhl collaborated to transform and modernize this 3,500-square-foot contemporary home in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Doug Hanna of S+H Construction recognized that this building, originally an abandoned municipal garage that was later converted to residential space in the late 1950’s by renowned architect Paul Rudolph, was not a typical project. With evidence of water damage and poor insulation, the goal was to make the house energy-efficient and weather tight home with the help of Zero Energy Design. S+H installed translucent polycarbonate window panels to bring light and warmth to the back room of the house, which was formerly unlivable for several months of the year due to the lack of installation. The improved room now offers heating, cooling, and high density foam insulation, and is now home to the new owners’ extensive book collection. The S+H team also installed triple-glazed, super insulated, sliding glass doors—which required modification of the slab deck and steel trusses—to offer outdoor access for the new residents.

Hillcrest is very proud to present this custom country estate. Our journey to provide this home for our customer started with our Realty division searching for land for them. After we found the gorgeous countryside site with an old pond, wetland and pastures we managed complex re-zoning and permitting. Because every direction offers distinct views, we spent a lot of time with our customers to place the home and create a layout that maximizes views from every living space. Our design department created a two story main dwelling with an open concept, modern country style custom kitchen, dining area with two sided fireplace, and abutting three season porch. With the kitchen being the hub, it accesses the office, front hall foyer, stairs to the second floor, and the breezeway to the auxiliary part of the home. The living room is semi-open of the dinette, and has chauffeured ceilings. The second floor contains the master suite with a very luxurious bathroom and stunning views. The other two bedrooms also provide great, far flung views. The auxiliary part of the home is perhaps the most unique part of this estate. It offers a long hallway with glass to the south overlooking a large patio with a hot tub. The other side of the hallway has a large laundry with a dumbwaiter to return the laundry upstairs, a shower and powder room for direct access from the hot tub and swimming pond, and a large mudroom. It terminates in the rear foyer with access to the garage and the crown jewel, the sports bar. The customer wanted a brew pub to make and serve his home made beer. The brew pub contains heated, stained concrete floors, concrete counters, and very tall vaulted ceilings. The walls and ceilings are clad with wire brushed grey stained pine and lots of windows overlook the hot tub patio and 270 degree views. The customer also wanted a barn, as both he and she grew up on a farm and shared the love of barns with Hillcrest’s owner. We designed the “perfect gentleman’s barn”, of course red with white trim and with a covered porch which extends on one side into a small greenhouse. Hillcrest also designed and built extensive landscaping features including a winding plank walk to a large swimming pond in the woods. Because of the ample ground water, we created a second swimming pond next to the house which is stays crystal clear and ended up functioning as an outdoor pool.

A bright new kitchen now adorns this South County home. The old dark wood stained cabinets were upgraded to a more modern style that ran to the ceiling to afford the owners more storage. Decorative tile draws the eye to the beautiful range wall. The homeowner's cousin made the custom live edge shelves that help bring warmth to the space. The old pantry closet was exchanged for more cabinets and countertops making cooking and entertaining easier. A new beverage bar takes its place to offer easy access to refreshments. The glass cabinets show off the homeowners china in a new sensational way. The bathroom received a light renovation as well bringing it up to date with new finishes.

This lakefront second home in the Irish Hills offered expansive lake views, yet the yard provided little usable space beyond the existing deck. The slope toward the water restricted gathering areas and made site access during construction especially complex.
The goal was to extend the living environment beyond the deck. To create a series of spaces that felt connected to the water, social with corn hole tournaments and a cozy place to unwind in the evening after docking the boat, cast in warm, soft lighting.

This modern kitchen pairs minimalist white surfaces with the warmth of lined walnut BOSSA fronts, creating a space that feels both open and inviting.
A seamless door leads to a discreet utility room — hidden in plain sight. Easy access keeps the kitchen clear and functional, without disrupting the design.
At the center, a multi-functional island anchors the space, offering room to cook, gather, and unwind. Small touches — like bold artwork and soft lighting — bring personality to the calm, refined layout.
