Solana Villas, a three-story multifamily community with 200 units, will provide much-needed housing to the historic downtown district.
The architectural design borrows from both the historic downtown area and the future commercial development planned by Carefree Buckeye 29, LLC. The influence of the downtown area is integrated through the prominent use of red brick along the wainscot of the buildings, providing a strong visual base for the structures. To complement the adjacent commercial development, the second and third stories have stucco as the main body material and include a similar red brick-like color on various vertical massings.
The utilization of these colors ties into the brick base of the first story and provides visual interest to the upper floors. Combining the light and dark-colored stucco with the brick wainscoting creates an attractive and compatible theme for the site.
The architecture focuses on modern style, historic materials, and eventful articulation, which will enhance the look and feel of the public streetscape and provide seamless integration into the surrounding community.
Amenities at Solana Villas include a clubhouse, activity room, fitness center, yoga studio, pool with cabanas, seating areas and a large outdoor kitchen. There is also a dog park and playground.
