The 27th Street floor plan foregoes the formal
living and dining rooms, in favor of an open floor that gives
lots of natural light and versatility to the home. The high
ceilings provide a very open feeling while the large windows
are located high in the walls.
You'll be pleasantly surprised by what is hidden behind those
massive cedar doors. The front courtyards open to the home's
interior, easily accessible through the double French doors.
These courtyards have a large seven-foot arched roof providing
shade embraced by thick brick walls. As the sun draws its arc
through the sky throughout the year, it never shines its warm
rays directly on the north side of things. Facing north and
then shading them with large semi-circular roof helps keep them
cooler throughout the year. This extends the time throughout
the year in which the courtyard is comfortable for enjoyment
and lounging.
The two full baths that these homes offer are truly unique.
Intricate tile work includes quality and elegant patterns that
provide warmth and texture to the bathrooms. The low grout to
tile means lower maintenance, as the grout lines are fewer and
easily cleaned.
The kitchen is straightforward but loaded with designer and
high-tech touches. Natural granite counters are illuminated
by halogen cabinet lights that just require you to touch under
the cabinet to turn on or dim, great for those times when your
hands are covered in cookie dough. A handmade stained glass
window shines above the Euro-style faucet and under-hung stainless
steel sink.
Between the house and the two-car garage is a real backyard,
large enough for pets and yet small enough to be easily maintained.
The whole yard is fenced with an eight-foot fence with garage
access from a public alley located behind the homes.
A few notes on the technical side of things. The commercial-grade
metal siding offers a finish that will look great for years
to come. The whole house is pre-wired with an alarm system that
can be monitored by ADT for added security. The outside of the
front gate has an intercom that is linked to a base station
located in the house. The hot water heater and central HVAC
system are located in the center of the house with easy access
to the attic stairs. This allows for short, efficient runs in
ductwork and water piping, as well as access for servicing the
equipment. In short, you won't have to waste five gallons of
water before you get hot water at the faucet. The WHC
design merges the best aspects of both loft and condominium
into your private, freestanding home. |
