Custom Homes
Ultracontemporary
This new home designed by 5468796 Architecture Inc. was built by Sakiyama Construction on a spectacular infill river lot. The original house was demolished to make way for the new home. The new home features a sunken courtyard, built in lap pool, and three bridges. Front and rear entries are framed by a soaring vaulted foyer.
| Unique features include 8 foot cantilevered den on the second floor and a rear deck fully enclosed by a remote controlled screen. A large percentage of the rear wall is floor to ceiling windows.

Exterior finishes are a combination of cement board, custom aluminum siding and cedar.

| Two storey vaulted foyer (front left, rear right) features custom Paramount windows and doors by Yarrow Sash and Door.

The sunken living room is positioned on an 8 inch structural concrete slab with in-floor hydronic heating (home is heated with 2 geothermal heat pumps).

Dining room side of the unique fireplace features custom cabinets by Legacy Originals complimented by free-standing tempered glass panels and custom fabricated aluminum countertop.

Minimalist kitchen features cabinets by M Concepts and Caesarstone countertops (above and following). Window coverings consist of remote control roll blinds recessed into the ceiling.
The oversized island houses a gas cooktop, concealed dishwasher and undermount sink as well as providing a prep surface and eating counter.

Floors throughout the home with the exception of bathrooms, living and family rooms, are wood grained laminate.

Staircases are fabricated of CNC-cut structural steel stringers accented by tempered glass railings and solid maple risers and treads (above and following).
The family room located in the lower level features in-floor hydronic heating. Acrylic bookcases extend from lower level to the ceiling of the main level.
An interior bridge spans across the family room joining a rear entry door to the main floor kitchen. Note the bridge crosses in front of the floor to ceiling windows that separate the family room from the sunken courtyard. The bridge railing is also clear tempered plate glass.
