Anderson Home

This 2,300 s/ft. home has a no-maintenance exterior of unstained, rough sawn white pine in a board and batten pattern and a galvanized standing seam metal roof by John Golke Construction. The site was modified to create a walkout on the lower level, and rocks exposed on the site were moved to create retaining walls. This is the south face of the passive solar home.
     
 
This passive solar design translates to a cathedral ceiling in the living room that still feels cozy because of the warming elements of wood floors and trim detailing.   The dining and kitchen area have ceramic floor tile.  The brick & stone veneer on the kitchen island was done by the owners.
     
 
The kitchen features hickory cabinets by Welling Woodworks in Stevens Point.   The living room floor is oak with a perimeter band of cherry.
 
The stairs wrap around the masonry heater and features white cedar trees cut by the owners.   Masonry heater veneer is sandstone slabs on the heated bench and a combination of brick, slate and fieldstone on the heater core. Another collaborative project with the homeowners.
 

 

Detailing around the bakeoven door at left consists of a sandstone mantel and a starburst design of slate.
     

 		  

Spectacular results by the stair crew are the end result of being challenged by each client�s vision of home and a collaborative spirit by every member of the crew.

 
     
 
The upstairs hallway.  The light switch in the cedar post at right has a carved cherry cover plate by Mark Klein.   The master bedroom southern windows have a beautiful view of the pond and hardwood forest.
     
 
White cedar tree trunks were used to support the front & side porch roofs.   Sandstone treads and cobblestone risers were a joint effort with the owners. We enjoy and encourage the involvement of our clients in all our projects�there are some great ideas out there!
