BH Construction and Homes – Coastal Vibes Meets Midwest
The mighty Midwest meets a coastal big city at 2520 Reichelt Circle in lovely Tea, South Dakota. BH Construction & Homes has done it again with this simply elegant, timeless, functional and impeccable two-story creation. Outstanding and impressive is the exterior that greets you upon your arrival. A perfect shade of white is showcased with a mixture of both horizontal and vertical lap siding and sleek stucco, which are accented with a neutral but tasteful stone that grounds the home and adds an earthy element to this heavenly facade. The goal of this exterior was to “combine materials and textures in a way that feels natural and new,” says Danielle and Brandon, owners of BH Construction & Homes. Just in time for Christmas, a classic white light, or a festive red and green can both be envisioned here this holiday season!
Inside, Danielle says that the goal was to make a home designed for those who work from home from time to time or all of the time, or who may have extended family members staying with them. After the last couple of years with the shift in how, where and for whom people work, this residence is exactly what a modern, working family needs to have a beautiful space that works with their everyday work style as well as lifestyle. Although geared for the aforementioned, this home has flexible spaces that can be used for multiple purposes.
One of the first things you’ll notice when you are about to enter through the front double doors is the strategically placed side door to the right; this is something special you will want to remember as you navigate through this dream home. The great spaces are all open-concept and flow fluently together with a neutral and warm color scheme. The entryway and living area are two stories high, with a catwalk between bedroom wings on the second floor, and feature paneling, plus a chandelier that matches the wood and iron railing. The living room pulls the outside in with its two-story stacked windows and a fireplace wrapped in stacked stone that spans from the floor to the ceiling. Visions of a tall Christmas tree in this space with a warm fire cracking come to mind.
The kitchen stops the show here, with white and warm white oak wood cabinetry, a large island with the dreamiest ever gray speckled counters that cohesively and smartly bring up the backsplash in lieu of tile. The fridge and freezer are integrated here and blend seamlessly with the rest of the kitchen’s warm cabinetry. Of course, complimenting this is a large pantry, plus the spacious dining space with its wood lap accent wall and linear glass and brass chandelier that pull the dining and kitchen spaces together. Off these two spaces, this home’s heart is one of the two office spaces that make work a dream thanks to natural light and the elegant styling of the room.
Opposite the kitchen and across the living room and foyer is a large space that could be the perfect space for a larger, more client-facing business, or even a mother-in-law or older child’s suite –remember that inconspicuous side entry door off the front porch? This leads into here! This space is large, features its own full bathroom with luxurious finishes, and a separate space that could be for home office storage or additional seating for an extended family member’s own lounge space. With its own exterior access and room for personal living, the options for this flex room are boundless. Pure. Genius.
Upstairs is where quiet time and rest take place, with the second floor being devoted to bedroom spaces. The primary space is split from the rest of the rooms by the open balcony offering views below, a total imagination enhancer for young and growing minds. The primary spaces are on par with a five-star spa, offering relaxation and respite from life’s hustles and bustles. In the sleeping space, a darker accent wall showcases views of the back and beyond but also grounds the room and almost hugs the space to ensure it’s as cozy as can be. Sconce lighting flank a large transom window and the bed below, adding to the custom feel of the room and home. The en suite bath culminates this wing with its custom finishes and specialized storage. The tile floor is a stunning, large-format square gray marble that meshes perfectly with the quartz counters and cabinet colors that have been carried up here from the kitchen below. Soft brass sconce lighting, faucets and cabinet pulls, plus a makeup seat and counter round out the vanity that sits across from the large soak tub. Moving further inward you find the expansive shower room with not one, not two, but three beautiful soft brass shower heads, a large inset shelf for toiletries and stunning gray tile choices. Rounding this all out is an oversized walk-in closet fit for all.
The rest of the bedrooms on this floor are all sized well for children and guests and are serviced by a bathroom with a terrazzo vanity and a tile floor with a fun pattern. Also, there is the incredible laundry room, which is not only stunning but functional, adding ease to the chore. In the basement, you will find more entertaining and sleep spaces and a basement bar that features dark-stained cabinetry and a large moody bar counter.
The execution and quality of this chic and coastal property are second to none. Not one detail has been overlooked here and that is true of all homes crafted by Danielle and Brandon of BH Construction & Homes. Perfect for the holiday season, as well as year round, 2520 Reichelt Circle is sure to make its owners happy and at ease.
