Modern Prairie Style

This Prairie style home design has a main level primary bedroom suite, and then a guest suite and two additional bedrooms on the upper level. Broad, sheltering overhangs, extensive glazing and a southerly orientation integrate environmental sensitivity with open, flowing living spaces to facilitate a relaxed lifestyle, gatherings of friends and family, as well as working from home. Between the 2-car garage and the open-style Kitchen are both a Family Entry and a sizable Laundry Room to provide a ready place for dropping off and picking up book bags, laptops, mail, coats, shoes and the like. The Primary Bedroom Suite is tucked into its own private zone near the Family Entry and Kitchen such that it also enjoys ready access to the Screened Porch and adjacent Outdoor Living Space, complete with its own fireplace. The Dining Room is positioned and detailed as Library-Office space for those who work from home. It’s proximity to the Main Entry, Kitchen and Living Area also makes it a wonderful Formal Dining Room, if desired.

The upstairs bedrooms open onto a recreation room, establishing a gathering space apart from the main level living area. Wood floors throughout the main level are complemented by carpeted bedrooms and tiled baths. Taking advantage of the sloping area of the site, a lower level walk-out with Recreation Room, additional Guest Bedroom Suite and the plumbing and electrical rough-ins for a Kitchenette provide a perfect opportunity for an in-law suite or apartment. Overall, the home has a contemporary, Prairie styling with an accent on the Asian influences from which the style was derived. Constructed by Chase Building Company.
