The Olympian - An underlying premise of the designer, Sandra Fugate, was to blend the serenity of a Japanese temple with the simplicity of a Craftsman bungalow.  This one story home was designed for aging in place, using Universal Design principles, and is also a 5-star Built Green® home.  Keeping with Japanese tradition, the home is nestled into its site, creating a graceful transition between the inside and outside environment.  French doors allow for scenic views of the beautifully designed waterfall / pond and landscaped yard filled with native plants.  The covered Patio extends from the Dining area to create ample outdoor living space.  Large windows throughout maximize natural light and create the feeling of being close to nature.  This home features reclaimed fir millwork, paperstone countertops, wood clad windows, Solatubes and a custom box-beam ceiling.  The exterior stucco finish was chosen for low maintenance and durability.
