PROJECT STATUS
The 2019 Southern Living Idea House Is now Closed. It has been a wonderful project for Crane Island and we received over 15,000 guests who bore witness to this remarkable home. The home was a terrific collaboration of Historical Concepts, Heather Chadduck and Riverside Homes. We are sorry we can’t take you on a tour, however, the ideas and inspiration live on in the below images and background on the project.
