Dream homes

 Our Countryside Rambler is located in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. Because the whole house is situated on a hill, how you can enter the site was a design challenge we solved with a unique side entry system.

Inspired by decades of travel to Kenya, our clients wanted a home that would reflect their love for The Continent and serve as a museum for the artifacts they’ve gathered. The Africa Safari style home is an homage to their deep love and commitment to Kenya, complete with a traditional, circular rondavel and museum room. Hand crafted of selected stone, the home and its detailed architecture is one for the ages.  JMAD JMAD JMAD JMAD JMAD JMAD JMAD JMAD JMAD JMAD JMAD JMAD JMAD JMAD JMAD JMAD JMAD JMAD JMAD JMAD JMAD JMAD Jim McNeal Jim McNeal More

 Our Del Camino home in Arizona is a modern, multi-level home with a two-story-tall great room space surrounded by floor-to-ceiling window to make the entire home light, open and airy.
