River Hill
A Spa-Like Primary Suite in a Contemporary Wooded Retreat
This one-of-a-kind renovation brought luxurious indoor-outdoor living to a striking early 90s contemporary home tucked into the woods. Greenleaf partnered with Place Architecture and Custom Fit cabinetry to create a truly unique retreat featuring a spa-like primary suite and guest bath refresh.
Scope of Work
- Complete renovation of the primary suite, including:
- Indoor/outdoor shower with cedar enclosure
- Freestanding soaking tub with nature views
- Built-in dry sauna from Regina Pools & Spas
- Water closet, custom vanity, and floating cabinetry
- Guest bathroom and bedroom renovation
- Installed new Marvin windows throughout
Design Highlights
The open-concept primary bathroom flows into the bedroom and extends visually into the surrounding forest. Soaring wood ceilings and a wall-spanning floating vanity add warmth and elegance, while an exterior door in the shower creates a seamless connection to the outdoors.
A hidden floor-to-ceiling glass pocket door discreetly separates the suite from the rest of the home, allowing privacy without disrupting the clean lines of the space.
From the freestanding tub with tranquil views to the custom sauna and outdoor shower, every detail was designed to elevate comfort, relaxation, and connection to nature.

As an engineer, I truly appreciated Greenleaf’s attention to detail, their understanding of construction theory, and their willingness to take the time to do it right. And the dog? Well, I think he is still heartbroken over the absence of the crew that was willing to throw the Frisbee for him.

I cannot say enough good things about Greenleaf, George and Derrick. They were a complete pleasure to work with from start to finish. Extremely responsive, very honest and professional, and fantastic work. They kept to the schedule, and I really appreciated their input on several decisions – what was worth spending money on and where we could save costs. I was sad when the job was over that we wouldn’t get to see them anymore! I will absolutely use them for any future renovations, and strongly recommend them without reservation.

We recently completed a renovation of the back wing of our home with Greenleaf, and we are thrilled with the results. The renovation process is difficult under any circumstances, especially when you are living in the house, but Randy, our lead carpenter, took very good care of us and was extremely patient even when we were frustrated. Greenleaf does meticulous work, and our designer, Marci Lief, was terrifically creative, transforming some difficult spaces into gems.

I found Greenleaf Construction to be a reliable, knowledgeable, and cost-conscious roof deck construction company. They knew the best materials and had the carpentry skills to do the job the right way.

Neighborhood: Bolton Hill
Greenleaf replaced our large, 2-story city deck with a very attractive, sturdy, composite deck. Every step was done professionally, from an initial thorough meeting with their team to plan the process with our lifestyle in mind and continued with excellent work habits of the carpenters and supervisors. The site was left neat and clean each day, and work commenced and was completed on schedule. I would recommend them for any home improvement project.

We hired Greenleaf for a complete remodel of our home including kitchen, bathrooms, and removing walls to create an open architecture. George Brown and his team did an exceptional job, exceeding our expectations. Our project manager, Derrick, was professional, responsive, and a pleasure to work with. Casey, our lead carpenter, was meticulous, down to the last detail. We appreciated the integrity and skill demonstrated by the entire team. We also were impressed with the creativity they brought to the project and that they worked hard to keep the scope within our budget. Highly recommended!
