Summit Custom Homes, in partnership with knh studio present a 6,000 sf fully custom and accessible, modern farmhouse. 

 

Enter the home through a grand, vaulted great room with sweeping back views of the prairie and corn fields. The home is carefully built into a rolling farm field leaving the lower level exposed to the beautiful view, while maintaining zero entry.

 

This home has several unique design features including custom reclaimed wood beams, posts and trusses, quartz/travertine counters, painted and walnut cabinetry, a sauna/gym adjacent to a spa-like bathroom, with Diamond Kote siding and stone exterior, a gorgeous sunroom, walk-in pantry, and a beautiful stone fireplace.  

 

Yet, the core of the design revolves around providing as much independence as possible for all family members, both now and in the future.  The unique individual accessibility and safety needs for this family include the following:

• Zero entry at the garage and front door

• Uponor Residential fire suppression sprinkler system

• Elevator/Lift for basement accessibility

• Auto door operators, pocket doors and lever pull hardware

• Smart home/voice command lighting, shades, and AV features

• Wider hallways and ballroom space to accommodate wheelchair turning radius.

• Zero threshold shower and accessible soaking tub

• Custom cabinetry and counters with specific measurements based on the family needs

• Ceiling track in the primary bedroom for transfers and daily care

• Wheelchair charging zone

• Sunroom to help regulate body temperature

• Flooring that is warrantied for wheelchair use

• Custom accessible mudroom and closet features 

• Gym Physical Therapy zone

• Garage suitable for an accessible van

We are excited to finalize the vision of making this a healing, bright, fun and comfortable environment for such an amazing family.
