New Custom Residence
Two-Story Custom Mountain Home
A 3,327-square-foot heated custom home combines main-level living and bedrooms with an upper bonus suite, generous porches, and a large attached garage.
Project overview
New Custom Residence
This rural custom residence concentrates the primary daily-use program on the first floor and reserves the upper level for a bonus room and bath. The arrangement provides the spaciousness of a two-story home while maintaining convenient main-level living.

Design approach
How the project was organized
- Main-floor owner’s suite plus two additional bedrooms.
- Upper bonus room and bath provide flexible secondary living space.
- Large front and rear porches support outdoor living.
- Prominent fireplace wall and detailed interior cabinet elevations.
- Complex roof composition coordinated with wall bracing, framing, and energy requirements.
Primary design challenge
The design needed to balance a broad first-floor program with a smaller upper level without making the exterior composition feel top-heavy. Locating the bonus suite within the roof mass preserves strong one-story proportions across most elevations while providing meaningful second-floor space.
