Quarry Mill
The Quarry Mill's Silver Cloud natural thin stone veneer looks stunning on the exterior of this beautiful home. Silver Cloud is an elegant dimensional stone with semi-consistent color tones including light blue/grey, buff and soft charcoal. The thin stone veneer showcases the interior part of the natural quarried limestone that has been split with a hydraulic press. One of the neat and unique things about Silver Cloud is there are some visible fossils within the stone. This natural stone veneer is dimensional cut into heights of 2.25”, 5” and 7.75”. Larger heights are available upon request. The stone is shown with a standard half-inch grey raked mortar joint between the individual pieces.

Fruitful Homes
BRIEF FOR THIS PROJECT WAS TO BRING BACK THE PROPERTY’S CHARM, MODERNISE AND GET IT READY FOR SALE. FOR THE OWNERS, THE DAMAGE LEFT BY TENANTS WAS HARD TO SEE PAST.
ON FIRST VIEWING WE ABSOLUTELY LOVED THE ORIGINAL FEATURES OF THIS HOME. THE FRONT PORCH COLUMNS, THE UNIQUE DETAILED CEILING ROSES IN EVERY ROOM, THE ORIGINAL WOOD FIRE STOVE. ALL OF WHICH FUELED OUR INSPIRATION FOR THE ENTIRE RENOVATION.
WE WORKED FROM FRONT TO BACK AND CREATED WHAT WE FEEL HAS MAINTAINED THE RETRO APPEAL OF THE PROPERTY BUT BROUGHT IT IN TO THE 21ST CENTURY.

Landmark Building Contractors LLC
This new home is the last newly constructed home within the historic Country Club neighborhood of Edina. Nestled within a charming street boasting Mediterranean and cottage styles, the client sought a synthesis of the two that would integrate within the traditional streetscape yet reflect modern day living standards and lifestyle. The footprint may be small, but the classic home features an open floor plan, gourmet kitchen, 5 bedrooms, 5 baths, and refined finishes throughout.
