Carver Residence
Location: Ames, Iowa
Completion Date: December 31, 2000
Project Size: 4,650 sq. ft.
Abstract: Conceived as an elegant country retreat, this 4,650 square foot custom private residence provides the owners a comfortable environment and generous entertainment space.
This primarily single-story story home with finished lower level and small loft space is nestled within a moderately wooded area of its rural site. Brick and siding combine with steep roof pitches and tall windows to create a sophisticated exterior.
With high ceilings, classic trim and interior finishes carried out in a soft palette contrasted by custom dark wood cabinets, the residence seeks to convey a stately yet inviting atmosphere.
