This “pole” house from the early 1970s—which commands a panoramic view of Bishop’s Peak and across the valley to Cuesta Ridge—had gone through a few remodels but by 2014 was ready for some tender loving care and the owners were ready to take on the task. The redesign draws from the original “bones” of the house by maintaining and expanding the view shed from inside the house, and differentiating the existing and new forms with alternate materials and colors that blend in with the surrounding natural environment. A new bridge entrance was created to expose some existing boulders and provide for a dramatic sense of entry, while the new entry roof and exterior walls were reconfigured to create a large roof overhang. A new roof deck on the main level will afford the owners new outdoor space with the expansive view off the living area and main bedroom. The owners are performing a lot of the work themselves along with other skilled trade persons.

The owners of this North Asheville residence were hoping for a kitchen that blended function with artful simplicity, and The Hands of Sean Perry Co. set out to make their dreams come true. The crew began by building a new mudroom addition and integrating it into the existing roof. In the kitchen, the existing terrazzo floor was resurfaced, and Union Woodworks installed custom cabinets, with Caesarstone quartz countertops, a new kitchen island in beautiful warm cherry, and a tongue-and-groove paneled refrigerator, blended perfectly into the cabinetry wall. With a floorplan and design consultation from Charlton Bradsher Art+Design, both rooms were styled to bring the outdoors in — with large picture windows that frame the urban homestead landscape, whimsical new woodland-themed wallpaper and ample display space for handcrafted wood serving pieces made by the owner’s father. Outside, a new entry was built to complement the home’s private, natural setting using North Carolina-sourced stone.

This house is firmly planted in the Shenandoah Valley, while its inspiration is tied to the owner’s British ancestry and fondness for English country houses. Situated on an abandoned fence line between two former pastures, the home engages pastoral views from all of the major rooms.

We started with a small, 3 bedroom, 2 bath brick cape and turned it into a 4 bedroom, 3 bath home, with a new kitchen/family room layout downstairs and new owner’s suite upstairs. Downstairs on the rear of the home, we added a large, deep, wrap-around covered porch with a standing seam metal roof.

Built in 1929, this Tudor revival home has been completely remodeled from the inside out by its current owner. Much of our vision was inspired by the integrity of the original construction and the owner’s desire to mix old with new. The end result is a vastly improved kitchen and master bath meeting today’s standards of functionality and artistry. Many elements of the kitchen were inspired by the original architecture. The leaded glass in the kitchen cabinets is repeated in windows throughout the home. The herringbone pattern of the kitchen floor tiles was inspired by the brick pattern on the exterior of the house. The Omega Vintage Oyster cabinets with Cappuccino glaze were selected to appear as if they might have been the original cabinets. The kitchen footprint has not changed from the original home, but the updated kitchen is much more efficient.

This "turn of the century" bath was completed in the turn of this century for a home owner adding on to a home built in the early 1900's.

The 3,400 SF, 3 – bedroom, 3 ½ bath main house feels larger than it is because we pulled the kids’ bedroom wing and master suite wing out from the public spaces and connected all three with a TV Den. Convenient ranch house features include a porte cochere at the side entrance to the mud room, a utility/sewing room near the kitchen, and covered porches that wrap two sides of the pool terrace. We designed a separate icehouse to showcase the owner’s unique collection of Texas memorabilia. The building includes a guest suite and a comfortable porch overlooking the pool. The main house and icehouse utilize reclaimed wood siding, brick, stone, tie, tin, and timbers alongside appropriate new materials to add a feeling of age.

A second-floor utility room makes laundry day a breeze.

With enormous rectangular beams and round log posts, the Spanish Peaks House is a spectacular study in contrasts. Even the exterior—with horizontal log slab siding and vertical wood paneling—mixes textures and styles beautifully. An outdoor rock fireplace, built-in stone grill and ample seating enable the owners to make the most of the mountain-top setting. Inside, the owners relied on Blue Ribbon Builders to capture the natural feel of the home’s surroundings. A massive boulder makes up the hearth in the great room, and provides ideal fireside seating. A custom-made stone replica of Lone Peak is the backsplash in a distinctive powder room; and a giant slab of granite adds the finishing touch to the home’s enviable wood, tile and granite kitchen. In the daylight basement, brushed concrete flooring adds both texture and durability. Roger Wade
