This home has a special story you will want to know about. It was lovingly planned, down to every finite detail and built over a 15-year period by its owners. The story starts with finding the perfect lot just shy of 10 acres and features a quarter-mile driveway that ends in a roundabout at the front of the house. The driveway is flanked by mature trees, creating privacy and the sense of a remote location, with the benefit of actually being in a central location. As you approach the home you begin to realize you are about to be amazed. This wonderful home was designed to capture the features from the Craftsman homes of the early 1900s: earthy, in the choice of stone and wood; an interior that transitions to the outside with large, wide porches and a heavy stone base to support each porch column; a large roof overhang, with exposed beams and rafters. The roof graces the building and provides shade in summer while, in combination with large south-facing windows, it maximizes solar gain during the colder months of the year. Staying true to the design are components of the original bungalow designs, including the simplicity of the door, window, and cabinet facings. A small version of a traditional Inglenook with a central wood stove shares its chimney with a stone-faced Rumford fireplace that has been perfectly placed in the center of the home. The mantel was made from a reclaimed barn beam. Building materials and fence design ties landscape features to each other and the home. T
