Significant Homes LLCCharles Hilton Architects, Robert Benson Photography
From grand estates, to exquisite country homes, to whole house renovations, the quality and attention to detail of a "Significant Homes" custom home is immediately apparent. Full time on-site supervision, a dedicated office staff and hand picked professional craftsmen are the team that take you from groundbreaking to occupancy. Every "Significant Homes" project represents 45 years of luxury homebuilding experience, and a commitment to quality widely recognized by architects, the press and, most of all....thoroughly satisfied homeowners. Our projects have been published in Architectural Digest 6 times along with many other publications and books. Though the lion share of our work has been in Fairfield and Westchester counties, we have built homes in Palm Beach, Aspen, Maine, Nantucket and Long Island.
Green River DesignThe bookcases were designed using stock cabinets then faced w/ typical trim detail. This saves cost and gives a custom built-in look. The doorways to 2 Bedrooms were integrated into the bookcases.

Wiedemann Architects LLCOur client was drawn to the property in Wesley Heights as it was in an established neighborhood of stately homes, on a quiet street with views of park. They wanted a traditional home for their young family with great entertaining spaces that took full advantage of the site.
The site was the challenge. The natural grade of the site was far from traditional. The natural grade at the rear of the property was about thirty feet above the street level. Large mature trees provided shade and needed to be preserved.
The solution was sectional. The first floor level was elevated from the street by 12 feet, with French doors facing the park. We created a courtyard at the first floor level that provide an outdoor entertaining space, with French doors that open the home to the courtyard.. By elevating the first floor level, we were able to allow on-grade parking and a private direct entrance to the lower level pub "Mulligans". An arched passage affords access to the courtyard from a shared driveway with the neighboring homes, while the stone fountain provides a focus.
A sweeping stone stair anchors one of the existing mature trees that was preserved and leads to the elevated rear garden. The second floor master suite opens to a sitting porch at the level of the upper garden, providing the third level of outdoor space that can be used for the children to play.
The home's traditional language is in context with its neighbors, while the design allows each of the three primary levels of the home to relate directly to the outside.

Olde Wood Ltd.Contrasting light and dark wood tones juxtaposed with bold, flowing grain patterns give reclaimed hickory a strikingly modern look and a casual, comfortable appeal. With unmatched strength and hardness, hickory is the perfect choice for an airy, contemporary space where kids and pets like to play.
Our 100-percent hickory reclaimed hardwood flooring and timbers come from American East and Midwest barn beams and joists. Each hand-selected Hickory wide plank flooring possesses unique features and colors that can only be found in slow-growth wood that is naturally aged.
Distinctives of Reclaimed Hickory
Our Hickory hardwood flooring features wide variations in color, from nearly white to dark brown, and a delicate balance of sound cracks, checking, wormholes and knots. It is the strongest commercial wood available.
Christa Pirl InteriorsAn original turn-of-the-century Craftsman home had lost it original charm in the kitchen and bathroom, both renovated in the 1980s. The clients desired to restore the original look, while still giving the spaces an updated feel. Both rooms were gutted and new materials, fittings and appliances were installed, creating a strong reference to the history of the home, while still moving the house into the 21st century.
