Design your dream house, to your own tastes and specifications, and let us build it with you!
Start with one of the designs and change whatever you like, or start with nothing at all. Every homesite on Gilquist Lane can carry a house that does not exist yet. Bring a sketch, photographs, a plan you have carried around for years, or nothing at all except the way you want to live. One home is under construction now, and fourteen homesites remain.
Gilquist Lane is a three-acre neighborhood at 3920 San Juan Avenue, where every house is different, but held together by a shared design language of lines, and complimentary color palettes of stone and timber.
A fifteen-home development usually fails in one of two directions. Build the same house fifteen times and you get a subdivision. Build fifteen unrelated houses and you get a street with no character at all.
The Gilquist Hay-field takes the harder route. Every home is a genuinely different design. What holds them together is not the floor plan, it is the finish.
Every home is finished from the same ten exterior schemes. A buyer picks a scheme, not a color, so no two neighbors ever land on clashing versions of the same idea.
Natural stone at the base, painted siding above, bronze or black window frames, and a timber entry door. The proportions change from house to house. The ingredients do not.
Cool paint colors take cool stone. Warm paint colors take warm stone. They are never mixed, which is the single detail that most often makes a new street look cheap.
Everything else is free. Rooflines, the number of stories and massing run from bungalow and bi-level through cottage and two-story to modern farmhouse, so the street reads as a neighborhood rather than a catalog.
Warm off-white siding under a bronze-brown roof, with warm white trim and a buff stone base. The lightest scheme in the set.

Gilquist Lane is in the town of Port Townsend. You are a 15 minute walk, or 3 minutes by car, away from Aldrich’s. The middle school is directly across the street. Fort Worden is a third of a mile away, and the ferry, the Co-Op, and the market are all within 1.2 miles of Gilquist Lane.
Fifteen homesites sit along Gilquist Lane, a new street at 3920 San Juan Avenue. The first home, The Stratton, is under construction now on Lot 2.
Illustrative only. This is not a survey, and lot lines are approximate.
Homesites at The Gilquist Hay-field are being released in phases. Registering costs nothing and commits you to nothing, but it is how you get first sight of a release.
Pricing, plan areas and phase dates are being finalized now and will be published here as soon as they are confirmed.
Fifteen elevations, each shown in the schemes rendered for it so far, and no two homes on the street will be the same one.
Ten exterior schemes, running from chalk white and warm khaki through cedar and sage to a near-black charcoal.
Fifteen homesites across three acres. Register your interest and we will walk the site with you.
No. The fifteen designs here are a starting point, not a catalog. Every homesite can carry a house that does not exist yet. Bring a sketch, photographs, a plan you have kept for years, or nothing at all except the way you want to live, and we will help you envision it, design it with you and build it.
Yes. Every home here can have a garage whether or not the plan came with one, from one car upward, attached or separate. Ceilings are nine feet on the main floor as standard and can go to ten, with taller doors to match if you take the ten. Metal roofing is standard and you can have tar or shingle instead. The siding is your choice. Tell us what you want changed and we will work it up with you.
You tell us what you want and we help you find the shape of it. Bring a sketch, photographs of houses you like, a plan you have kept for years, or nothing but the way you want to live. We work it up into a design with you, agree it, and then build it on the homesite you choose. Strukt is the builder throughout, so the people drawing it are the people putting it up.
No. Every home at The Gilquist Hay-field is a different design. The collection you see here holds fifteen elevations, and no two homes on the street will be the same one. What holds the street together is not the floor plan, it is the exterior palette: every home is finished from the same ten paint and stone schemes.
Three things. A single palette family of ten exterior schemes, shared across every home. A common material vocabulary of natural stone, painted siding and bronze or black window frames. And a consistent stone rule, where cool paint colors take cool stone and warm colors take warm stone, so no facade fights its own masonry.
Yes. Any of these designs can be finished in any of the ten schemes. Each home page shows the combinations rendered so far, so you can see exactly how your home would look before you choose.

No. Every image on this site is a design visualization of a home that has not yet been built. They are accurate to the design intent and to the specified paint, stone and finish colors, but final built work will vary with site conditions, and on-screen color is not a color match.
Tell us which designs caught your eye. We will email you the plans, pictures and documents for the ones you like, send phase dates the moment they are confirmed, and walk the site with you when you are ready.
