Live and work at the village center

The Live/Work spaces at Serenbe are like having a Manhattan loft in the middle of the woods. These homes will be designed by a team of architects, led by Lew Oliver, to create a well-planned, compact space for living and working.

The ground floor of each of these two- or three-story units is a storefront to be used as a studio, workshop or retail space, with the living quarters located above, not unlike small town main streets of long ago, where shopkeepers often lived above the store.

The exteriors of the Live/Work spaces are brick, stone or smooth stucco on masonry, with interesting urban architectural details, as well as balconies, porches and marquees. The architectural style will be inspired by local examples in historic downtown areas, as well as reference to Adam, Greek Revival and Italianate styles.
