Number: 0385 The Tray House Construction Images

The first group of images are from the first 0385 Tray House to be built in 2004 in North Carolina. The Owners will be using it for their primary residence. It is located on a beautiful site on a wooded hillside. The house is sited to take advantage of a lake view at one end of the property. You will see that it put one end of the house projecting out of the hill which they took advantage of to create a walk-out basement. My sincerest thanks to our customers who share images of their homes. Return to: 0385 The Tray House Zeitgeist House
