Exposed Lowers: Building in Harmony with Nature

The Bennington

Some builders see the steep hills and varied terraine of the Kettle Moraine area as as impediment. At KHLH, we think of it as an asset to be embraced rather than as a challange to overcome. We specialize in cultivating the opportunities our unique landscape provides by capitalizing on the exposed lower level.

One of the first items we consider in building any home is the nature of the specific lot. We evaluate what the options are before we even begin to proceed with the design. For while home design can involve abstract or ideal images or models, quality home building can only take place within the context and parameters set by the special character of each particular lot.

The Kettle Moraine area is blessed not only by being in one of the most beautiful states in this great country, but also by being in a particularly exciting geographic region. Glacial movements and deposits truly created a unique landscape for us, and we at KHLH have gained a great deal of experience in capitalizing on this great natural resource.

Yet an exposed lower level does more than create harmony with nature. It also transforms what would otherwise be mere basement into main level living space. Adding full 8-foot ceilings completes this transformation.

To further enhance the quality of your view and our exposed lower entrances, we use top quality Marvin windows and doors.

In conjunction with our master carpentry and the use of other fine features such as top quality carpeting, cabinetry, and Hanson case and base, your lower-level will quickly become the focal point of your new home, serving all your entertaining and social needs.

By blending the structure of our custom homes into the timeless natural beauty of the environment, we create lasting KHLH classics.

We invite you to visit the additional exposed lower-level homes below.
