Sterling Custom Homes, a builder of new homes in Austin, is known for its innovative and custom designs that create a seamless flow throughout the home. One of the builders’ most popular innovative design features is the 20-foot disappearing glass wall.
In 2004, Sterling Custom Homes introduced the disappearing glass wall to the Austin area in a Showcase Home built at Flintrock Falls. The home builder has installed more than 30 of these custom walls since that time.
Disappearing Glass Walls
“The disappearing glass wall is the perfect addition to a custom home,” said Duke McDowell, President of Sterling Custom Homes. “For buyers who enjoy entertaining family and friends, this design creates an open flow where guests can mingle comfortably both inside and outside.”
To create the seamless flow from inside to outside of the home, Sterling Custom Homes uses the home’s wall cavities to pocket the sliding glass doors. When installed in a custom home, this door system typically flows into a large, covered outdoor living space. The dramatic effect is augmented when placed in an area that overlooks a lake or Hill Country view.
Texas custom home builder, Sterling Custom Homes, understands the importance of each design element and how it translates to the home buyers’ lifestyle. From site selection, construction and disappearing glass doors, the builder offers design solutions for all preferences.
