Ewing Oasis

Located in the sought-after Linden Hills neighborhood of Minneapolis, this transitional-modern new build features a unique layout and one-of-a-kind design. The hilly site posed a challenge and opportunity for our design and build team. From the initial planning phases, we worked closely with our clients to create a modern, playful home with open spaces, ample storage, and plenty of natural light. The exterior design was inspired by homes that feature a bold combination of contemporary black siding and traditional brickwork. A mix of flat roofs and gables works together to create uniformity and dimension to the human scale. Situated on a hill, the home boasts a tiered landscape design, helping it to blend into the surrounding landscape. Inside, each room boasts its own individual character while maintaining a cohesive palette of colors, textures, and finishes. Contemporary rift and quartersawn white oak flooring connects each space, while a mixture of modern and contemporary light fixtures and hardware contributes to the overall aesthetic. Throughout the home, the clients also had fun with vibrant colors and patterns, infusing the spaces with personality and charm. High-quality materials were used to ensure durability and a high level of design, resulting in a space that is functional and fitting to the owners’ personal lifestyle.

Our Process

Consultation

After you reach out to Anchor Builders, we’ll discuss what you’re looking for and the goals for your new home. We’ll decide if we are the right team for your vision. If the answer is no, we’ll recommend other options. If the answer is yes, we’ll walk you through a budget presentation and a subsequent follow-up discussion.

Conceptualization

We’ll come out to the property and get some measurements. Then, the real fun begins —the design kick-off and space planning. Together, we’ll start developing the home that will be your family’s anchor for years to come. Later, we’ll go through a rough bid presentation and then the actual design development will begin.

Construction

Next, we’ll get to work with a build kick-off as we begin the construction. You’ll be kept up-to-date on the progress with onsite walk-throughs as your Anchor home gets closer and closer to being finished. After completion, it’s champagne time! We’ll welcome you into your new home with a finished home reveal.

  • Scott J.

  • Minneapolis

"Thank you for your honesty, diligence, transparency, and expertise. We appreciate you. We love the home you have built for us and will treasure our years here."

  • Lisa S.

  • St. Louis Park

"Although the home we moved in to was no longer working for our family, we never wanted to tear it down and start over. Anchor Builders – and in particular, its design team – helped us achieve that, and we simply added another chapter to our original home’s story."

  • Katie S.

  • Minneapolis, MN

"It was easy to work with Anchor for many reasons. Having an in-house designer who guided us along the way with our planning was extremely helpful. Though I thought I'd have little need for a designer (I'd like to call myself design savoy), our designer proved to be very valuable."

  • Anna L.

  • Minneapolis

"We love our home and really enjoyed the design and build process. All of our neighbors who were living next to the build also have made comments about how respectful Anchor was throughout that process."

Your home is the anchor of your family.
