This is even, or maybe especially, true in the basement.
Often an inconspicuous, tucked-away door opens a dark
stairwell to a dark basement. In contrast, this bright
stairwell with high ceilings is emblematic of what is yet
to be revealed on the lower level. The basement boasts 9'
ceilings with ample living space to include a recreation
room, bar, billiard area and home gym. Great proponents
of the walk-out basement, the Corrigan's reason that
the lower level, if done well, can provide a great deal
of additional square footage while still offering luxury
living and generous natural light. A home's curb appeal
is easy banter and a chief consideration for builders and
homeowners. Yet, the back of the house seems so often
neglected, an afterthought at best. The rear façade of the
Corrigan home is, however, quite striking, beseeching
one to step yet further back into the yard to fully take
it in. The home is quite simply a showstopper, from any
vantage point and more importantly, it is the Corrigan's
crowning achievement.
