From the timbered entry porch and foyer, you will just catch a glimpse through the open staircase of the cathedral ceiling’d great room with its massive stone fireplace and tasteful window wall.

On the first floor in addition to the great room; the dining/kitchen and master bedroom are also bright dramatic areas with vaulted ceilings oriented to enjoy the lot’s primary view.

This open floor plan is ideal for entertaining with guests freely moving from the kitchen and dining areas to the great room and, if desired, out onto the rear covered porch.

A generous, private loft provides flexible space ideal for an art studio; it might also serve as an office, TV-media or guest room.

The conventionally constructed daylight lower level, with ample rec.room and two large bedrooms rounds out this well orchestrated plan.

• Add an attached garage adjacent to the laundry/mud room
• Enlarge the great room by moving the window wall back 2-4 feet. If afternoon solar gain is a concern, consider adding a vaulted timber framed sitting porch, this will provide shade to the window wall by extending the roof back 10-12’ or so.
