U5 Harvest Park


Here's a wonderful small family home we recently finished at Harvest Park in Mapleton. There are three bedrooms including the master bathroom and three bathrooms. This home has some fun additions that make it unique.

As you enter, on your right the front room has been turned into a hair salon for one of the homeowner's cosmetology career. The salon entry has large double doors that can be closed for privacy, or kept open for public access.


There are a bathroom and large closet linked to this room, perfect for company. The room is well lit, and gorgeous. There are elegant double-hung windows in the salon and beaded glass side-lights on the front door.

The bright light throughout this entry space really energizes the rich wood flooring. This floor is an engineered hardwood called Southwest Indigo, and has kind of a formal friendly vibe to it. It is one of my favorites.

Here's the hair washing station that was installed for the salon. The closet, you can see, has a good amount of storage space that will be great for product, and all necessary supplies. Then on the left is the guest bathroom. 


















As you move into the main area of the home, there is a great open concept area for family space. Included in the space is the family room, kitchen and dining room. The elegant fireplace is the center of the home. Above the fireplace is wired for a flat screen television, to aid in entertaining within the space.




Once again, the space is beautifully lit with natural lighting. The home has a warm calming feeling to it, with the chosen surfaces, and colors.   The whole home is very light and bright throughout allowing room for creative decor and furnishings.



The fireplace is a traditional full mantle with legs. The tile they used in the inlay is an exquisite tile from Emser Tile that mimics the look of subway tile without appearing trendy.

 The tile is called "Classica"and it is a subtle off white with white grout. It shimmers a little as light hits it, which creates a polished glitter effect that I just love!

























Here, in the kitchen, the cabinets are painted bright white and somewhat staggered as they all reach to the ceiling. The stark modern white shaker style is softened by the crown molding above the cabinets. The Countertop used in the kitchen was a bright white quartz counter top that doesn't distract from the simple kitchen design.



The backsplash here is more of the fun Classica Tile that adds some textural variety to the bright white kitchen. This tile back splash is so intriguing. I believe this is a classy look that will continue to please the senses over time as some phases come and go with style.













The simplistic pendants hanging above the bar and dining area will provide a romantic setting in the evenings. It brings the room together as the lights create a middle plane of visual interest to the room. 

We make sure there is always an ample amount of power outlets since technology is so much a part of our lives. Notice the island has a functional power outlet making it a convenient use for appliances, or charging electronics.




















Here is the master bedroom, just down the hall from the living room. This grand bedroom has more beautiful sash windows with the decorative cross patterned inlay. There is a large master bathroom and walk in closet at one end of the room, and the laundry room is conveniently placed around the corner from this room.



The carpet they chose for this home was an appealing "winter-mist" taupe-gray color. It is a cozy plush carpet that would be great in any room where a person would lay on the floor, or walk around with no shoes.



Inside the master closet there are lots of different functional areas provided for the best use of the space. Our finish work contractor does really well at implementing closet storage in our homes.



Here is the master bathroom. The master tub is inviting with a warm colored tile and a built in shelf to keep bath items. The graceful curve of the faucet and tub gives a sense of luxury. The shower has more of the warm tile look, with the fun decorative glass mosaic strip with blue accents.

Having three shampoo shelves in the shower is a really nice addition. You can never have too much storage space in a home. The shower is a good size with large glass opening that makes the whole bathroom look even larger as the mirror reflects the space.














The vanity is painted white shaker style with nickel sink fixtures, knobs and pulls. It has a beautiful granite white and gray counter top that brightens up the space. Two sinks in the vanity gives the master bathroom couple a good amount of space.





Continuing up to the second level of the home, the carpeted stairway has a fun look to it. The high ceiling with open walls helps let in light to the space and makes it feel grander. The pendant light hangs down in the center as a decorative accent.


One fun thing that Summit Construction builders do is turn stair space into a lighted crawl space that would be really fun for children.






This is a part of the upstairs bathroom. The same granite, hardware and cabinetry as the main bathrooms on the main level, maintaining cohesiveness.

This bathroom has a door that separates not only the vanity from the hall, but then the toilet and shower from the vanity as well -for increased privacy.

In these next few pictures we have the two upper level bedrooms. You can see that there are some fun uses of the space. The windows have been extended up the ceiling, which allows more wall space, but also gives added light to the room. Similar to a skylight, this also gives more privacy than using lower windows.


This room had a bump out to utilize more closet space, it gives the room an interesting shape. The lighting from the windows brightens up the space quite a lot reducing the need to use more electricity during the day.
























It is always wonderful to finish up a new home, we enjoy working with our clients, and enjoy seeing the beautiful custom homes we create together. This is another beautiful home from Summit Construction. Thanks for viewing.
