Craftsmen Residential Design Project
The Problem:
Residential design services were required for a custom home on a 5-acre parcel within the gated community of Job’s Peak Ranch in Douglas County. The pristine environment of Job’s Peak Ranch requires residences to coexist with the wildlife and natural features of the Sierra Range. Consequently, all designs are reviewed by the Job’s Peak Ranch Architectural and Landscape Council.
The Solution:
In conformance with the established design guidelines, a design was created that took advantage of the unbelievable views while blending into the natural environment. The natural wood siding selected was in harmony with the surrounding landscape, and roofing materials complied with fire protection district codes.
The Results:
The final product was a 7,000-square-foot, two-story “Craftsman Style” home that takes advantage of several view corridors through the pines to the beautiful Carson Valley. The home features a separate “granny flat” utilizing interlocking beam work at the entry and front porch. The residence was built with clear cedar siding, a natural stone wainscot, and oversized column bases.
