We are building a house in West Concord, a short walk to town. Easy access to Thoreau elementary school, shops, train, library, restaurants, fields, park, rail trail, and playgrounds.

We are building a house on 1.5 acres off Elm Street in a quiet, walk-to-town location.

The Wheelhouse is unique in suburban Boston. Flexible, state of the art workspacewhere entrepreneurs, investors, consultants, non-profit leaders, and other professionals who need a home base outside their home office can work and network in good company. And have some fun, too. It’s a new kind of community of innovators. In the historic heart of West Concord.

The 104-year old Bradford Mill is home to a variety of innovative, creative, locally-owned businesses. Swing by to see the results of our “beautification project” that includes new siding, windows, HVAC, entries, and safety systems. We welcome your suggestions and comments and look forward to seeing you at 23-53 Bradford Street in Concord, MA.

The improvements are extensive and promise to make the Bradford Mill an even better place to work.  This is Phase 1 in what will be a multi-year project, but the benefits are already being felt.

• Exterior Improvements.  Ancient clapboard siding on 23 and 33 Bradford will be replaced with durable Hardie Plank siding.  New, insulated low-E windows will be installed.  The entry ways will be updated.  The loading docks will be rebuilt.  Asphalt on the main parking lot will be repaired.

• Interior Improvements.  We are going to install new, high efficiency HVAC in 23 Bradford as the first step toward retiring the 1939 boiler that currently heats the entire property.  A new stair core will be added to 33 Bradford.

The buildings are steadily being brought up to code on all fronts – electrical, plumbing, fire safety, accessibility…  It’s a journey, and it’s a good one.

We had the pleasure of working with Johanna and Mark while our house was in the midst of being framed, up to completion and were very impressed. Their attention to detail helped make the process run smoothly and end on time. Overall, their thoughtful design and layout with an emphasis on functionality for a busy family has provided a great home!

Mark and Johanna have great attention to detail. Some of it is hidden detail – the placement of the fires, the structure of the roof to ensure the home is not too tall, and so on. But much of it clearly visible to the eye – the determination to match items to period detail, the quality of the fittings and finishes, and the addition of the important contemporary needs in a way that accords with the rest of the detail (that great mudroom, and walk-in closets for all!)

…

We’ve relocated multiple times. This was by far our most successful building experience. Mark and Johanna have a great reputation. They produce a quality product at a great price. We highly recommend this builder.

…

Less than twelve months from P&S until closing. High quality materials, respected suppliers, great reputation. You’ll love the finished product.

…

Home building is all about details. Patriot Development did a great job on the details. Mark and Johanna helped us pick the right materials and features to make this purchase the right value proposition for us.

We love the look of our home. Its excellent external design means it could be placed in the center of Concord, and blend in immediately. Inside, the open layout creates the feeling of space and relaxation, and everyone has space of them of own or places to hang out together. Without exception, visitors say they love our home.

…

35 Pleasant Street never fails to make me happy because the design works on many levels. It fits the neighborhood. The house is sited very well. (We have always thought so; trained designers agree.) The interior flow works well for small groups and large gatherings. The spaces are easy to clean.

…

The finish work reflects a style that has become classic in New England without being cluttered. Things work and hold up to wear and tear. We’ve been in the house for 3 years; the interior and exterior do not look like they have had three years of wear (and we don’t treat the house like a museum!). The mechanical systems work well and are easy to maintain.
