Are you planning to build a cabin or lake home in the Greater Lakes Areas of Minnesota or Wisconsin? Whether you know exactly the look and layout you want or just have a general concept, our professional design team is skilled at helping individuals create an atmosphere and architectural look tailored specifically to their desires.
BlueStone Construction is a highly respected construction company that has earned its reputation for being a top-notch custom design/build contractor. Based out of Brainerd, Minnesota we live, work and play “up-north”, allowing us to receive inspiration everyday. At BlueStone we specialize in lake homes and cabins. By merging intelligent design, quality craftsmanship and attentive eyes, our team is able to design/build beautiful structures with great regard to overall environmental impact.
Design/Build
Design/Build is the process of defining your tastes, your lifestyle, your vision; documenting them into your final construction plans and finally constructing those plans bringing your dream into reality. Most of our projects are a combination of many design styles. Each new home is unique or “one-of-a-kind”. Four important words throughout our design process are: Relevant, Refined, Rustic and Appointed. We achieve true individuality by tastefully combining materials with modern architectural design techniques.
BlueStone Construction currently serves the Alexandria, Bad Medicine, Brainerd, Bemidji, Detroit Lakes, Grand Rapids, Pokegama, Walker, Longville, Remer, Mille Lacs Lake, Superior, Duluth, Lake of the Woods, and surrounding lake areas. We’ve designed and built lake homes in central, northern and western Minnesota and are expanding into Wisconsin lakes country.
Communication Is Key
Most of our projects are long distance builds. Meaning BlueStone has additionally had to develop excellent planning and communication skills to keep its customers fully informed throughout the construction process. We constantly show you what is coming and provide you timely progress reports on what has taken place or what you need to do next. Problems are identified ahead of time and clearly communicated to you, so together we can take full advantage of the best solutions.
Our designers, architects and builders are sensitive to your wants and needs. We understand our customers would rather get exactly what they want, exactly how they want it rather than merely getting the most space for the cheapest price. On one occasion our team was asked to move an existing A-frame cabin… build a new foundation for a much larger, more sophisticated new lake home, and then merge the two structures together. Structurally this wasn’t the cheapest request, nor the easiest task to fulfill. It required a higher degree of architecture, construction, management skill and engineering expertise to pull it off; all of which BlueStone can provide. But the end results far outweighed the costs for our customer.
In mid-Minnesota, we are seeing home designs with open, spacious living areas and at the same time cozy places throughout. Lots of windows to bring nature close and lofts overlooking the great room are popular. Natural stones and reclaimed wood floors and walls are selections we see more and more. More and more high end customers are seeking “old world” hand hewn timbers that have been salvaged from structures originally constructed in mid 1800’s and early 1900’s. Add to this BlueStone’s keen eye for detail and quality craftsmanship and you are well on your way to creating many years of family memories in your beautiful BlueStone Construction custom lake home.
