A brawny, lodge-style retreat, this home will enhance even the most picturesque setting. Starting with its rugged exterior, the homes shake shingles, wood garage doors, and gable-end brackets join with a stone-accented foundation and a sturdy entrance with flared columns to set a casual tone.
The informal air continues inside, where the living spacesincluding the kitchenare visible from the foyer. The wide-open floor plan shares light that spills in from a dormer above the foyer, from two-story great room windows, and from French doors and corner windows in the kitchen. Built-ins and amenities augment the living areas, including a kitchen island and niche, great room bookshelves, and columns around the foyer.
