Greenstone’s Cottonwood+ is the first of its kind of this particular home model to offer a sizeable amount of extra touches for homeowners. One of the most noteworthy features is an independent suite that can be appreciated by family members or other guests. The “Suite+” includes an independent bedroom, kitchen, and living area, as well as a separate private backyard patio. While suite residents do receive privacy, they also have easy access to the rest of the home if needed so everyone can come together, making this model optimal for multi-generational living.
The spacious five-bedroom two-story home on Bastien Loop in Coeur d’Alene in the Coeur d’Alene Place community also offers a large covered back patio that’s absolutely perfect for year-round outdoor entertaining. Greenstone neighborhoods are also designed around nearby community trails and parks.
The home was featured in North Idaho Building Contractors Association’s Parade of Homes in 2024, where it received Hemlock awards for best kitchen, best interior, and best curb appeal. N
The spacious kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, offering a seamless flow into the dining and living areas, making it perfect for family gatherings and hosting guests. A central kitchen island makes it easy to prepare food as well as gather. The family kitchen includes a full pantry and a large farmhouse-style sink. The builder focused mainly on lighter tones in the cabinets, but added some darker elements for greater contrast.
A welcoming back porch includes a covered seating area and outdoor dining area. Homeowners can enjoy a spacious fenced backyard. There’s a smaller patio for the attached suite and even some space along the side of the home for further privacy. The back patio can be reached from the kitchen and great room, making it easy to transition for meals, while entertaining, or when things get a little chilly outside.
