THE DRAWING BOARD – JULY 200

Located high above the Fox Island Thoroughfare with views over North Haven to the distant Camden Hills, this summer residence features an organic arrangement of rooms, ample natural light, and an open floor plan that utilizes classic Shingle Style principals. Interior finishes include wide-board walls and traditional rough plaster, as well as Douglas fir woodwork, antique heart pine flooring, and numerous fieldstone fireplaces. The exterior is intentionally intricate to masquerade its considerable size; island granite chimneys and terraces anchor the building. The home employs many tenets of the traditional coastal vernacular, including natural red cedar shingles, projecting bays, and “knife edge” eaves.
