 Live Happily Ever After in your own European Country Cottage Home;  window boxes brimming with flowers, quaint Olde English style leaded glass windows; meandering stone pathways through the gardens; or any other style that you desire.....designed and built to fit your personal needs....

Glenn will help you evaluate your lot.......................Glenn will help you evaluate your lot................Glenn will help you evaluate your lot..........
..........................before you actually purchase it.

  We invite you to tour the Liliput Lane neighborhood and other homes that Glenn has designed and built.  Lilliput Lane ends at a cul-de-sac, allowing the quiet, no-traffic Lane to be the perfect setting of tranquility.  The name of the Lane was inspired by Gulliver's Travels, where the tiny island of Lilliput was the home of the Lilliputians.....ours, a small, quaint neighborhood on a small Lane with the atmosphere of a village in England, nestled in the woods. 


Even though the last lot has been sold on Lilliput Lane, Glenn can help you find the perfect building site for your new home.  Glenn will help you evaluate your potential lot before you buy from a design/build aspect at no charge to you.  He would be happy to give you a design/build quote and other important information necessary to know when you are considering a lot purchase.  Information  way beyond what a real estate agent would even know.  There are many considerations when purchasing a building site, some of which add expense to building process.  Also, I may see even greater potential than what you might think is possible.

Be sure to click on the Open House button to take a photo tour of the Gulliver's Gate Cottage on Lilliput Lane .  Loading the photos will take several minutes and I hope you wait.  Beyond the Open House page, there is a spot to click to go even further to the upstairs gameroom named Gulliver's Landing Pub and Pool Room, one of the Guest Rooms and to the Back Courtyard's Lilliput Village Bakery*.  See some sample photos below....Here you will find an Olde World wood-fired brick oven where we bake artisan sourdough breads, pizzas, and much more.  Also featured is the Waterfall and Dipping Pond.   Please treat yourself to a cup of tea while you wait.  It will be worth the wait.  If you would like a more complete Open House Tour, please contact us .  We encourage you to call us at (530) 895-1125 or  877-2276 to make an appointment to tour our home in person to see, touch and feel the quality of the design/build projects that Glenn Bruno, Architect/Builder  offers.
