Inside, a brick fireplace and natural wood mantel anchor the great room. White built-in cabinets and wood display shelves connect the fireplace wall to the surrounding living space. The kitchen continues that contrast with white cabinetry, a dark island, light veined countertops and a range hood accented with wood.

The project also includes practical spaces for daily life, with pantry storage, a mudroom, laundry areas and a primary suite with dressing and bath spaces. Covered outdoor areas and the wooded surroundings extend the home’s relaxed character beyond the interior.
