Naturally attractive

A good-looking, well-built, comfortable home results from skill, commitment and hard work behind the scenes.

For Steven Streeter, of family-owned and -operated building company Streeter & Associates, passion is also an essential element in the building process.

"Craftsmanship must start at the foundations and continue to the end of a project. Being passionate about each project shows in the finished home and in the home-owner's ongoing enjoyment," he says.

Homes at Lotus Lake exemplify this philosophy. Streeter & Associates worked closely with architect Charles Stinson as this neighborhood project unfolded. The company has built every home at Lotus Lake, becoming involved in the early stages of design to ensure the architecture is practical and can be achieved within each homeowner's budget.

"The homes at Lotus Lake are all very modern in style, with a complexity of detailing that requires well-established systems and building processes. There is no margin of error for mistakes," he says.

"We believe in a close collaboration between architect, builder, interior designer and homeowner," says Streeter.

Close management and a good team of craftsmen are other key ingredients for the company, which employs only skilled craftsmen who work with experienced project and site managers.
