Contemporary Hillside DwellingWith its three-level floor plan, this striking contemporary home plan nestles perfectly into a front-sloping hillside. Exterior projections diminish the height and add character. The exterior shown is beveled wood siding with a wood shake roof, but with a change to stucco and tile the house would be a natural in a Southwestern setting. Set at an angle, the front door opens to a soaring entry. The vaulted living room boasts exposed wood beams, while the dining room accesses the front deck. In back, a fireplace warms the informal area, consisting of a family room opening to the rear patio, a nook opening to the side deck and a spacious kitchen with an eating bar separating it from the nook. Upstairs, two secondary bedrooms are separated by a bath with double vanity and a convenient space for a washer and dryer. The vaulted master suite is vaulted with an open beam in the ceiling, a large walk-in closet and private bath. Foundation: crawl space. | |
