Willow

When the homeowners first approached Cornerstone Homes, they arrived with a clear vision but an open mind. They had been searching the Claremore and greater Rogers County area for years, waiting for the right piece of land and the right builder to bring their dream home to life. What they wanted was something that felt distinctly modern yet deeply rooted in the warmth and character of rural Oklahoma. They envisioned a home where clean architectural lines could coexist with natural textures, where every room had a sense of purpose, and where the property itself would become a gathering place for family and friends throughout the Tulsa metro area. From the earliest conversations, the Cornerstone team recognized that this project was about more than square footage and finishes. It was about crafting a lifestyle.

The design process for the Willow was a true collaboration between the homeowners and the Cornerstone Homes design team. Together, they explored dozens of floor plan iterations before arriving at the split-layout concept that defines the home. Placing the master suite on the main level, separated from the secondary bedrooms and upstairs media room, gave the homeowners both privacy and connection under one roof. The decision to incorporate a seasonal-height walk-in closet in the master suite came from a desire to make everyday routines feel luxurious, while the dedicated home office positioned off the main living area ensured that working from home in Claremore would never feel like a compromise. Every decision was intentional, from the placement of the powder bath for guest convenience to the orientation of windows that capture the Oklahoma sunrise over the rolling Rogers County landscape.

Material selection for the Willow was guided by a philosophy of honest, enduring craftsmanship. The mixed brick and siding exterior was chosen not only for its striking modern farmhouse aesthetic but also for its resilience against the demanding Oklahoma climate, where hot summers, ice storms, and high winds are all part of life. Inside, the Cornerstone team sourced materials that balanced beauty with durability: wide-plank engineered hardwood floors throughout the main living areas, custom-milled trim details that echo traditional farmhouse profiles, and a kitchen designed around both serious cooking and casual entertaining. The large upstairs media room was engineered with enhanced soundproofing and pre-wired for a full home theater system, giving the family a dedicated retreat for movie nights and game days without disturbing the rest of the household.

Perhaps the most transformative element of the Willow is the outdoor living space. The homeowners knew from the start that they wanted a pool and pool house, but the Cornerstone team helped them think bigger. The result is a seamlessly integrated indoor-outdoor experience, with covered patios that flow naturally from the main living areas to the pool deck, a fully equipped pool house with its own kitchenette and changing area, and landscaping that takes advantage of the native Oklahoma terrain. The pool house serves as a self-contained entertaining hub during the warmer months, and the thoughtful hardscaping means the outdoor areas remain beautiful and functional even through the cooler seasons. Situated in the heart of the Claremore community, the Willow stands as a testament to what is possible when homeowners with a bold vision partner with a builder committed to exceptional quality.

From the initial land consultation through final walkthrough, the Cornerstone Homes team guided the homeowners through every phase of construction with transparency, communication, and an unwavering commitment to getting the details right. The Willow was completed on schedule and has since become one of the most admired custom homes in the Claremore area, drawing attention from neighbors and visitors alike who appreciate the seamless blend of contemporary design and timeless Oklahoma hospitality that defines every corner of this remarkable residence.
