Designed from the ground up, this custom Shingle Style residence blends timeless New England architecture with modern family living. Thoughtfully proportioned massing, natural cedar shingles, handcrafted details, and carefully organized indoor-outdoor spaces create a home that feels established within its landscape while providing the comfort and functionality expected of a contemporary custom home.
This custom Shingle Style home was designed to reflect the enduring character of New England’s historic country estates while embracing the needs of modern family life. Every aspect of the home—from its carefully balanced massing to its refined architectural detailing—was conceived to create a residence that feels authentic, timeless, and deeply connected to its surroundings.
The composition is organized around a series of interconnected volumes that reduce the perceived scale of the home while creating visual interest from every elevation. A detached-feeling three-car garage is linked to the main residence through a lower connector, allowing the primary house to remain the dominant architectural form. Graceful rooflines, copper accents, cedar shingles, divided-light windows, and carefully proportioned trim reinforce the home’s traditional New England vocabulary.
Inside, the floor plan prioritizes natural light, seamless circulation, and strong visual connections to the surrounding landscape. Expansive windows, French doors, and thoughtfully positioned living spaces blur the boundary between indoor and outdoor environments while creating warm, inviting spaces for both entertaining and everyday family life.
The exterior architecture is complemented by carefully designed site planning that includes a circular cobblestone driveway, native landscape plantings, stone walls, and formal gardens that root the home within its setting. Every architectural decision was made to ensure the residence appears as though it has gracefully evolved over time rather than being newly constructed.
The result is a custom home that celebrates timeless craftsmanship, contextual design, and enduring architectural character—creating a residence that will continue to feel relevant for generations.
