Summit Hill Haven
Summit Hill, St. Paul
The allure of Summit Hill’s historic charm captivated our homeowners, yet finding the ideal home posed a challenge. Before acquiring their century-old home, they sought assurance that it could be transformed to meet their family’s needs. Guided by the insightful expertise of the Quartersawn team, we crafted a design that not only paid homage to the existing architecture but also seamlessly catered to their lifestyle.
The kitchen was thoughtfully laid out with a focus on both cooking and entertaining featuring an expansive island—a central hub for family gatherings. A strategic redesign involving the removal of a secondary staircase and the relocation of basement stairs allowing for the creation of a spacious powder room, pantry, and mudroom. The primary suite boasts a luxurious spa-inspired bathroom adorned with marble floors, handmade tiles, and a rejuvenating steam shower. The addition of whimsical wallpaper and paint colors throughout the home introduces a fresh, youthful aesthetic that complements rather than distracts from the traditional home architecture.
It felt like they were people interacting with us as people. The connection with them and the communication was so great. We used to joke that we don’t have time for friends, but we have these really fantastic builders. So, they’re our friends now.
