2014 Tour: TJB Homes, Inc

2014 Home Highlights: TJB Homes, Inc

On weekends, the owners of this 6,000-square-foot Gem Lake home don’t need to head across town to bars or clubs in the Twin Cities metro. They can stay home and bring the party to them, right in their very own nightclub-esque lower level.

The space was transformed into a hip hangout with a TV viewing area, large corner built-in bench, custom two-level rounded glass and granite bar, billiards area, rock-and-roll themed game room, display wall, high-tech sound system, and ceiling soffits in the shape of guitars. Rounding out the space is an exercise room, sauna, wine cellar, and guest suite.

The home was also built for modern convenience with professional-grade appliances in the main level kitchen, enough counter space to host a cooking class, a large pantry (with room for a freezer), an expansive bbq deck off the back of the home, floor-to-ceiling windows showing off views of the wooded Hillary Farm lot, high ceilings, gleaming hardwood floors, a rustic cedar porch, a four-car garage, and master suite with a sitting area and private reading deck, the perfect escape from reality when the weather cooperates. The level of customization is what makes this home so unique.
