Silvercrest: Light-Filled Modern Ranch-Style Home Plan

September 11, 2024

EUGENE, ORE. – September 3 2024 – The Silvercrest is aptly named, as this contemporary ranch-style home is bathed in silvery natural light through its lavish banks of multi-paned windows. Outside, sunbeams dance across the glass panes, creating a captivating light display. Choosing a wide lot with a scenic vista to the rear would maximize the viewing opportunities, making the most of this home’s design.

The vaulted hexagonal great room is the highlight of the interior illumination. With two banks of glass filling most of the three rear walls, the room is awash with natural light. The center section features twin sets of French doors that open onto a wide deck, which wraps across the entire back of the house. The walls on either side have lower window sections at door height, underscored by stone veneer wainscoting. Wide transom windows crown all the rear windows and doors, enhancing the sense of openness and light.

Upon entering through the arched entryway, you cross a transverse hallway where you can pause to appreciate family treasures displayed in an art niche before stepping into the great room. To the left, the hallway leads to the utility room and the owners’ suite, while to the right, it takes you past the kitchen, secondary bedrooms, basement stairs, and the two-car garage.

A pony wall provides both openness and separation between the Silvercrest’s kitchen and the rest of the great room. From the range, cooks can keep an eye on the entire space, as can those on the clean-up crew. The sink and dishwasher are aligned along a peninsular counter rimmed by an eating bar, making the kitchen both functional and social.

The owners’ suite boasts numerous amenities, including a walk-in shower, soaking tub, dual vanity, and direct access to the deck. Bedrooms two and three share an interestingly angled bathroom, adding to the home’s unique design and functionality.

In summary, the Silvercrest is a thoughtfully designed ranch-style home that maximizes natural light and scenic views, providing a bright and welcoming living space.
