Welcome

To Your Quiet Woodland Retreat 

Nature is the landscape designer here.  Green and lush with moss, ferns, and shady forest.  These peaceful surroundings will embrace you outside on the patio or inside behind the huge wall of glass.

In All Seasons

Each season has its own beauty in the forest. Thoughtfully placed to be a part of nature, the site-responsive  architecture of this home maximizes natural light and views with little disruption to the landscape.

And Times of Day

From the early morning sun peeking through the mist to the golden, twilit hour, natural beauty is all around and makes its way into the heart of the open floorplan through eight 8-ft tall windows.

Living / Dining Area

The 10' ceilings and huge south-facing windows make the main living area feel bright and spacious and provide substantial solar gain in the winter.  With the warm-hued solid bamboo flooring and the glorious view of the outdoors, the ambience is undeniably elegant and cozy.

The floorplan is open yet organized into discreet, functional spaces, with a comfortable flow of the kitchen to dining to living areas.  It is impossible to overstate the impact of the tall ceilings and big windows on the volume of the space.

The Kitchen

The spacious custom kitchen opens to the rest of the common area with a U-shaped countertop with a deep overhang for bar seating, an inviting place to hang out and chat while cooking together. The generous storage and counter space are organized to optimize efficiency, including large pantry cabinets. Corian countertops and high-end, vertical grain Scandinavian Oak laminate on the cabinet fronts are both beautiful and easy to maintain.
