Using the corner lot orientation to his advantage, Jesse designed a wrap around covered porch in true colonial design fashion.This inclusion also created an opportunity for a second floor deck that similarly spans throughout the second floor bedrooms. This detail can be seen from three elevations of the home and characterizes them all with the same consistent traditional charm no matter what angle you approach the structure from.

The carriage house garage doors are designed to compliment the range of other exterior details. Incorporating a three car garage into any building facade is a difficult one when you are trying to maintain a timeless and uninterrupted exterior facade. In this case, Jesse chose to create three separate doors to maintain traditional proportions, along with unique lantern style sconce lights positioned throughout the building facade for consistency.

The “front” elevation exudes a regal sense of inviting warmth and, in Jesse’s words, “was designed to make you want to have an iced tea and stay cool in the heat of the summer.” A front courtyard surrounds the front porch mimicking the “L” shaped living room within, creating a connection between the landscaping and the structure, and foreshadowing the seamless flow between the exterior and interior that will characterize the rear elevation.
