The exterior aesthetic of this weekend retreat was influenced by farmhouse vernacular. A steep gabled roof allows for dormers on the canal side, which give height and light to the carefully designed bunk room. The shallow lots in this community require thoughtful consideration to ensure space is maximized without creating a house that feels flat. A combination of Artisan lap siding and board & batten both create texture and facilitate deeper shadow lines. Two 12’ gliding doors mirror each other, one towards the bay and one towards the canal, giving a more spacious feel to the living room, and maximizing the best feature of the home - the site views. Designed for a family of five, a boat house and swimming pool complete the check list for a perfect escape from the city.
