These homeowners asked Torrell Homes to create a home that would allow them to age-in-place. Accessibility was assured with the installation of an elevator, and we made sure that their hobbies could be enjoyed right on the property with his-and-her workshops: one designed for pottery, the other for woodworking.
The owners appreciated special touches that recognized their passions. For these avid gardeners and plant lovers, we put up interior stone windowsills to prevent damage from any accidental overwatering.
Careful layout decisions ensured that a place with so many “extras” would not feel crowded. That included ideal placement of a Scandinavian-style guest house, which was built on a floating foundation of helical piles and suspended slab to preserve large trees in the scenic backyard.
