Barn Inspired Gambrel

About

Set on a hill with spectacular ocean views, this barn inspired gambrel home presented a unique challenge given its small lot size. Rather than extend the footprint out, the design required a more vertical approach. A gambrel roof is employed to balance the visual height of the home, while traditional shingle-style, gambrel detail produces graceful curves that sit atop the stone façade. The wraparound porch provides expansive space to lounge, but functions to ease the home’s three-level height as well.

The pleasant shade of blue shingles is a nod to the owner’s love of the color. We drew inspiration from the rugged, coastal shoreline when working to unite the exterior colors together. Overall, this majestic home is quite a sight to see and beautifully achieves the owner’s desired living space program.
