Conover Commons Homes - Redmond, WA

Spacious living in compact homes

This private and peaceful neighborhood, minutes from both Kirkland's and Redmond's urban centers, is bordered by a nearly five-acre permanently protected woodland with a backdrop of breathtaking Cascade mountain views. Each home at Conover Commons is designed with community in mind, surrounded by a small, fenced private yard and sensitively arranged around our hallmark, garden courtyards rich in native plantings. The community offers the luxury of both privacy and a secure neighborhood where neighbors know and are known by each other.

Conover Commons Homes is intended for families seeking the comfort of a compact 1570-2400 square-foot three-bedroom plus floor plan, the beauty of highly-detailed design elements, and environmentally-friendly features in a community close to job centers & transit. Each BuiltGreen 4-Star and Energy Star Certified home includes artful design details such as third-level lofts and towers for a mini-getaway space. Seven of the homes have daylight lower levels that may be used as additional bedrooms, a family room, home office or workshop, and include an additional bath and laundry.

Conover Commons was designed by Ross Chapin AIA, Ross Chapin Architects.

What homeowners say:

"Our home and our community are just the right size to contain a curious toddler, and when we outgrow the cottage, Conover Commons has a community of three-bedroom, three-bathroom houses right behind us. It's nice to know our community offers the room for our family to grow."
