PROJECT OVERVIEW

Country Character with Room to Live

The Smiley House is a 3,500-square-foot custom home designed with a warm country feel. The finished living space sits above an unfinished walk-out basement, giving the homeowners substantial room for both everyday living and future possibilities.

Tall coffered ceilings, 8-foot doors, and a bonus room above the garage add scale and flexibility. In the large living room, two 8-foot French doors open to a screened porch, while a back-to-back fireplace connects the indoor and outdoor gathering spaces.
