) — A proposal to build a neighborhood of million-dollar homes on a 14-acre Dublin reserve has taken another step forward.

Applicant Bill Adams’ and architecture firm MKSK’s proposal calls for 20 single-family homes to be built on the 14-acre property north of Bright Road, near the Grande Cliffs Estates and Hopewell Elementary School. Dublin’s planning and zoning commission recommended approval on Feb. 6 to rezone the reserve from a “Restricted Suburban Residential” district to a “Planned Unit Development” district.

“This development is a very unique offering for Dublin,” Adams said during the meeting. “It showcases very sensitive land planning, controlled architecture, along with an elevated price point for the executive housing market.”

Each home would have a $1.5 million to $2 million price tag, with central Ohio-based Corinthian Fine Homes as the neighborhood’s designated builder. Brian Kinzelman, co-founder of MKSK, said the proposal aims to conserve several acres of green space, and reiterated that the development wouldn’t be gated. The development looks “forward to being part of this neighborhood, not exclusive of it,” he said.

“Having something as simple as a tasteful street sign is about as bold as we want to get,” Kinzelman said. “We’re looking to fit in to the neighborhood, not to be an exclusive place on Bright Road. So, no entry walls.”

Planning and zoning commission members talked through certain design criteria, like the width of the development’s sidewalk, but emphasized their support for the proposal. Commissioner Kathy Karter said she appreciated the developers effort to mesh the development with the surrounding community, and Commissioner Kim Way said it shouldn’t “look like every other subdivision in Dublin.”

“This is a really special and unique development, so obviously the applicant is really trying to do something that’s above and beyond and I’m totally supportive of it as a concept,” said Way. “I love the notion of the character of this and a brick side walk, I’d love to see that.”

Commissioner Rebecca Call, chair of the commission, also spoke in support of the proposal, emphasizing the uniqueness of the development.

“I’ve been on the commission a long time, you look at the last time Dublin did a development that had this quality of architecture, of design, of natural resources, of the totality of the application, we don’t get these very often,” said Call.
