Transforming Legacy: A High-End Whole-Home Remodel in Wood River Valley
When our clients first approached us, they had a clear vision: elevate their existing home in Sun Valley into a modern, functional, and luxurious retreat while preserving its charm and mountain character. The result is a refined blend of craftsmanship, innovation, and timeless design.
Project Overview
- Location: Elkhorn Neighborhood, Sun Valley, ID
- Scope: Whole-home remodel – kitchen, living space, primary suite, and exterior
- Duration: 7 months
- Construction Value: $1.2M
- Project Type: High-End Residential Remodel
Client Goals
Our clients loved the bones of their home but wanted to update it with the following in mind:
- Open Concept Living: Connect kitchen, dining, and living areas for better flow
- Modern Comforts: Integrate smart home features, radiant heating, and custom lighting
- Natural Aesthetic: Preserve timber elements and views of the surrounding landscape
- Master Suite Retreat: Transform the primary bedroom and bath into a spa-inspired haven
Our Approach
To execute a remodel of this caliber, we followed our proven Pre-Construction Services Agreement (PSA) model. This allowed us to plan proactively, manage risk, and ensure transparency throughout the process. With collaboration from the clients’ interior designer and our curated trade partners, we delivered on every promise — and then some.
