Located on the large
unimproved lot on a heavily forested mountain, the house was located
next to the forest at the foot of the hill. This placement has
a great view of the distant lake in the southerly direction. The
orientation is important to be able to open the house towards
the south and provide some passive solar heating. The septic field
was located in the adjacent forest, which required some clearing
of sizeable trees to be later used in construction. The focal
point of the house is the custom built stone Rumford fireplace
dominating the two-story loft space. |
