A Little Place On The Water

This custom, waterfront home borrows the shapes of a traditional, vernacular farmhouse and combines them with the open, modern feel of a contemporary.

A relaxing sitting area near the double-sided fireplace in this screened-in porch opens to the house by way of floor-to-ceiling gliding glass doors.

In the kitchen, stock-size cabinets were kept uncomplicated, just as they would be in a traditional farmhouse. “I wanted something clean and simple,” says the homeowner.
