GHC - New Construction Project: Old World Charm
To set off this lovely waterfront setting tucked away on Fox Island, the owners wanted their custom dream home to emanate an old-world character. They performed thoughtful research to ensure that each design element would reflect this feel. From the colors and fixture choices to the heart pine floors, the owners had complete artistic control of this beautiful project. Even at 5,000 square feet, the warm design features help the home to exude a cottage flavor. The family benefited from GHC’s custom cabinet building expertise. We built all the kitchen cabinets, the fireplace and moldings, including the high baseboards, either on site or in our Gig Harbor shop.
 
     

GHC - New Construction Project: Northwest beauty
This classic Northwest design takes advantage of the spectacular views of the Puget Sound at every angle. From its cedar shingles to its cherry hardwood flooring, this signature project represents some of our most comprehensive work. The Fox Island beauty features a well thought-out design with natural, northwest materials such as custom cherry cabinets, granite countertops, Douglas fir doors, and hemlock and cherry trim. With roof lines that are reminiscent of a small village, spectacular ceilings up to 30 feet and windows, windows, windows, this 4,000-square foot home is a show piece. GHC worked closely with the owners who took the vision of architect Bret Drager and ran with it. They made all of the light, yet warm color choices and selected all of the fixtures. Throughout the 10-month construction project, the home’s owners were involved every step of the way.
 
 


GHC - New Construction Project: A Luxury Dream Home
This work-at-home couple is sparing no expense to have GHC build a high-tech, luxury dream home that reflects their love of Gig Harbor and the Pacific Northwest. Featuring top-grade natural materials of cedar, slate, granite and stone and a customized interior fully wired for the latest technology, the 5,200 square-foot home, once completed, will be the ultimate in Northwest chic.


GHC - New Construction Project: Rooms With A View
Bret Drager, of Drager Gould Architects in Tacoma, designed this Fox Island home to take full advantage of its Mt. Ranier view. Every room opens onto the deck, which faces the sound and stretches the length of the 2,200 square foot home. Its features reflect true Northwest styling, from its wood-framed Pella windows and open beam ceilings to its custom cabinetry work and separate, vaulted-ceiling writer's retreat.







 

GHC - New Construction Project: Next Generation Home
The owner took over his grandfather's South Puget Sound property to build a next generation home, which takes advantage of light, volume and natural woods to create an informal, comfortable ambience. It features high ceilings and lots of Anderson windows throughout. The exterior is wrapped in Eastern white cedar siding, while reclaimed chestnut floors and lots of quality Douglas fir millwork accentuate the interior.







 

GHC - New Construction Project: Cozy Country Getaway
This custom-built cabin on Anderson Island brought to life the owner's childhood fantasies of a cozy country getaway. The exterior shingles and board and batt are of Western red cedar. Inside, lofty ceilings and Milgard windows and doors lend a spacious air to the 1,200 square foot cabin, while lots of knotty pine woodwork, hardwood floors and a river-rock fireplace give it a home and hearth feel.
