When searching for inspiring ideas for a new-construction home you might become a little overwhelmed and you might ask yourself some important questions such as: “What are the latest trends in new-construction homes?”, “Will I love this style in ten or more years? If not, perhaps I should leave some trends aside and go for a more classic look”, “Am I building our forever home?”, “Does the style of my home fit the neighborhood?”. These questions are just the tip of the iceberg, but this California new-construction home might bring you some ideas and help you with the many decisions that will have to be made while building your new home.
Designed and built by Willhoit Construction, this is a home that, although it certainly features trendy elements such as black windows and painted brick exterior, will certainly stand the test of time because its modern design choices are balanced with classic elements.
What I love most about this home, besides the charming and inspiring exterior is the fact that the interiors are not complicated nor overly-done. They certainly have a casual California vibe that makes you want to live life more and stress less and who isn’t up for that these days?
Here, the builder and designer shares some insights:
“The goal for this project was to build a house that felt bright and open but also had dedicated areas for each living space. The house needed to have a large and bigger than expected feel; lots of windows and doors along with the 22″ ceiling in the living room brought that to life. Both the first and second floor had 10″ ceiling heights and the 10′ tall LaCantina Sliding doors in the living room opens to the backyard, which was designed for entertaining. This house was designed for a young family with kids.”
This inspiring California new-construction home offers a sophisticated coastal living experience filled with top of the line materials and designer finishes.
