This state-of-the-art residence in Chicago presents a timeless front facade of limestone accents, lime-washed brick and a standing seam metal roof. As the building program leads from a classic entry to the rear terrace, the materials and details open the interiors to direct natural light and highly landscaped indoor-outdoor living spaces. The formal approach transitions into an open, contemporary experience.


The exterior of this home is as functional as it is aesthetically pleasing. The standing seam roof is a popular option because of its durability, clean lines and energy efficiency. Cedar shingles and exposed rafter tails elevate the overall design. One of the most stunning features of this home is the custom, all glass front door with side lites and transom.


Working with an award winning home design firm, this home was conceptualized and planned out with the utmost in attention to detail. Unique architectural elements abound, with the most prominent being the curved window set with extended roof overhang that looks a bit like a watch tower. Painting that feature a dark color, ensured that it remained noticeable without overtaking the front facade.
Extensive cedar was used to add a bit of rustic charm to the home, and warm up the exterior. All cedar is stained in Benjamin Moore Hidden Valley. If you look at each side of the highest gable, you will see two cedar beams flaring out. This was such a small detail, but well worth the cost for a crane and many men to lift and secure them in place at 30 feet in height.
Many have asked the guys at Pike what the style of this home is, and neither them nor the architects have a set answer. Pike Properties feels it blends many architectural styles into one unique home. If we had to call it something though, it would be Modern English Country.

A beautifully crafted 6BR | 5BA designer home, thoughtfully curated to enhance everyday living through the union of art & functional home design. Upon arrival, a porte-cochère ushers you into the motor court. Notice how the architectural details & landscape elements flow continuously on all sides of the home. The attention to detail is paramount. Premium materials, paired selectively in black & white, deliver dramatic contrasts that abound in beauty. A cathedral ceiling in the heart of the home directs attention towards an impressive, floor-to-ceiling masonry fireplace showcasing a solid beam, heart pine mantel circa 1895. Recharge in the well-appointed master suite complete with heated floors, curbless shower, free-standing tub, & a luxurious custom closet. Brilliant lighting throughout. Dedicated home office (flex space with separate entrance), 2nd bedroom on main, & so much more!


Client wanted to update their simple vinyl colonial to a modern farmhouse. We got some James Hardie board and batten siding, added a new front porch with a metal roof, and then added a little black and white Sherwin Williams paint.
