Located in the 'Estates at Chapel Ridge' golf course community in Raleigh, North Carolina, the Chapel Ridge Show Home was the recipient of a prestigious architecture and design award this year. The "Dream Home Awards" is a national, annual architecture and design competition which recognizes excellence in the housing industry and acknowledges the very best in livable environments.
The show home was built by Choate Custom Homes and designed by J.R. Ruthig, Managing Designer at Dominick Tringali Architects. The design focus was to feature the latest design trends within a reasonable square footage. The architectural style is a blend of Country French and traditional Southern design elements. The home itself is just over 5,000 square feet and features unique design trends such as an outdoor loggia, entertaining areas and a bar in the lower level, a custom wine cellar that stores 1,300 bottles, and many more living spaces that are typically found in much larger homes.
The show home also features luxury custom details and materials such as limestone brick barrel ceilings, substantial wood trusses, a solid walnut custom staircase, and various types of beautiful woods used throughout the ceilings, walls and floors.
This project and the recognition it has received is another example of the growing popularity of luxury design trends in smaller homes. As we move forward and the housing industry makes a comeback, we will be seeing more and more clients seeking this type of custom home.
