We should have known that One Silverton custom home wouldn’t be enough. Silverton is a beautiful mountain town and it seems the secret is out. When we started on the Murphy protect it didn’t take long for another new client to find us. This couple has been visiting Silverton for many years and are looking forward to their new custom home. This one is starting out as a large garage with an apartment above. The long term plan is to build an attached custom home. For now the smaller home will make a great place to live! It is fun to work for good people who appreciate what we do. I think we have the best clients around!
Multi-generational custom family home. This client is another example of our first time clients becoming lifetime clients. We built the Jensen residence on this property a couple of years ago. Now it is time for Their Mother to join them on the property. This amazing multi generational family will each have their own custom home built right on the farm. Bayfield, CO is a great place to live and work and I’m proud to be building for this family again!
Right at the edge of town in Beautiful Silverton Colorado is the location for this new custom vacation home. Our clients have built a few houses before in other places and really enjoy the process. So when it was time to build their vacation home in Silverton it was only natural that they chose the builder that “makes the process fun” We love getting to build in some incredible places. The views in Silverton are just awesome. We look forward to this home taking shape.
At Will Construction we believe one of the most important qualities of a builder is good communication. Sometimes it takes many years to prepare for and plan the design and construction of a new custom home. This was the case with our latest build. We first talked to this couple from Las Vegas, NV in 2010. We got along well from the beginning and have been planning their new home every since. As it turns out 2018 is the year to build! We worked together to design a very nice 2 story home with a walkout basement and large garage. The home is sited on the lot to maximize the mountain views and the passive solar exposure to the South. The home will be almost 2900 Square Ft. and will have 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms and a wine cellar. The home is designed with the master on the main floor along with a large great room and kitchen. This open concept makes the house work very well for the family. The location just North and East of Durango is close enough to town to be convenient and yet provides the mountain setting the owners fell in love with.
The Kohler residence will be a Mountain contemporary style home located in the mountains north of Bayfield. For now this will serve as a vacation retreat for our clients but eventually will be their retirement home. The home was designed to be built using an existing foundation from another home on the property that had been previously demolished. The new home is larger so we added onto the old foundation where needed. Our design build process working together with a local architect created the plans and allowed us to get started building. With almost 5000 square ft. of living space there is plenty of space to entertain and the second kitchen on the lower level will allow for 2 families to enjoy the home with their own space. Heating will be provided using a high efficiency boiler and radiant in-floor heat. Large windows across the front take in the mountain views. Inside will be finished with wood beams and wood ceilings to give it that mountain look. Outside we will use mostly stucco to keep the house maintenance free. The rugged mountain location makes the perfect setting for this Bayfield Custom Home. We are proud to be working with great clients on a great project!
The Temple’s had a very nice home near Shenandoah subdivision but the siding was dated and deteriorating. They hired us to remove the old siding and replace with new Smart Side material that will last for many years. This type of siding looks like wood but is actually a composite material that is more stable. The siding actually comes with a 50 year warranty. After 2 coats of paint the owners shouldn’t have to do anything for many years. The exterior of the house looks like new!
Our client has hunted all over the world and needed some additional space for his hunting trophy’s. So the solution was to design and build a remodel addition. Phase 1 was to build a new garage so we could re-purpose the existing garage. The new garage is a large 3 car space with room for a workbench as well as the vehicles and toys. The existing garage will be transformed into the new master suite. Then the addition will be a large trophy room with a wet bar, high ceilings, stone fireplace and of course hunting trophy’s all around. This house sits above beautiful Vallecito lake near Bayfield, CO. The views of the lake are fantastic!
These clients were ready to retire and wanted to downsize. They were living in a very nice home in Dalton Ranch which is in the Animas Valley North of Durango. They wanted a more country setting and a smaller house with less maintenance. So we designed and built their retirement home on their lot in Timerdale Estates just outside of Bayfield. Completed in March of 2017 our clients are enjoying their new home. The exterior is stucco for no maintenance. The inside is finished very nicely with wood, tile and carpet flooring. Granite counters, semi-custom cabinets and wood trim. All sitting on a beautiful lot that overlooks a seasonal pond.
The home includes features such as hand scraped wide plank Hevea wood flooring, Beech cabinets, Quartz counters, Knotty Alder trim, custom audio ,and is pre-wired for security. The home is heated by a 95% efficient furnace, utilizes high quality low-e windows and includes GE Monogram Professional energy star rated appliances. The outside is finished using typical mountain home materials that blend in with the surrounding landscape. A combination of natural stone, stucco, and cedar make for an outstanding presentation. Don’t miss the reclaimed beetle kill pine ceilings on the porches! This home was featured Durango Parade of Homes best bath!
When the Schlotthauer family purchased this lot north of Durango and situated just below the train tracks they dreamed of eventually building an efficient family oriented vacation home. If there is a theme to the home it is “trains”. The family has enjoyed watching and riding the Narrow gauge train for many years and wanted to include some details in the house to reflect their interest. Should you miss the train themed light fixtures that flank the large 2 car garage, you will certainly notice the steam engine that is etched into the custom front door (a family member did the etching). On the outside we incorporated typical craftsman details like the square tapered columns sitting on stone piers and supporting the open beam pergolas. The stone wainscot with stucco above and a combination of shingle and lap siding on the gables certainly ads to the craftsman feel. The home includes custom features such as oak flooring, Knotty beech cabinets, Quartz counters, Pine doors & trim, as well as a built in flat screen with surround sound over the fireplace. The home is heated by a 95% efficient furnace, utilizes high quality low e vinyl windows and the kitchen includes GE stainless energy star rated appliances. Together with a thoroughly sealed building envelope the house will perform very efficiently.
