This custom designed Topsider home, built in the midst of a California vineyard, is one of our favorite classic Topsider pedestal designs. The Topsider building system allows a wide range of luxury home design possibilities like this pedestal concept, which is also ideal for sloping mountainous terrain or coastal areas where homes must be elevated above flood levels. All Topsider Homes are individually engineered to meet or exceed local energy, seismic and hurricane building codes.
