Fait Maison - French for "house-made" - is a European farmhouse tradition thoughtfully designed for Midwestern life. Crafted by Old Town Design Group in collaboration with Everything Home, this 2026 Home-A-Rama home in Saddleridge Estates is a celebration of timeless materials, handcrafted detail, and natural beauty. Perfectly positioned on a homesite bordered by mature woods, common area, and a tranquil lake, the home feels private, grounded, and deeply connected to nature. Every element was intentionally selected and finished by hand - oak, limestone, plaster, leather, aged brass - creating a home that feels layered, warm, and enduring rather than manufactured. Smooth plaster walls and ceilings carry light softly throughout the home, while the sculpted hand-plastered range hood becomes a centerpiece of craftsmanship within the kitchen. Natural oak runs continuously through flooring, beams, ceiling planks, cabinetry, and built-ins, creating a warm, unhurried rhythm from room to room. Spanning 6 bedrooms and 5 full baths plus a powder bath, the home was designed for both elevated entertaining and everyday comfort. The main level features a dramatic 2-story entry, cathedral great room, chef's kitchen with working pantry, dining and living spaces, and a cathedral-ceiling primary suite retreat. Upstairs offers additional bdrms, a loft with cathedral ceiling, open balcony overlooking the main level, and a secondary laundry. The lower level was designed as an experience of its own with a living area, full bar, inviting speakeasy, wellness and fitness room, game area, guest suite, and abundant storage. Outdoor living extends seamlessly with a covered patio and raised terrace connected by a stunning double-sided see-through fireplace overlooking the wooded surroundings and lake view. More than a home, it is a handcrafted story of natural materials, thoughtful design, and the artistry of building something meant to last. See photos of the communities amazing amenities.
