I first worked with this client back on 2007 on a small addition and renovation to their former residence to create more space for their young family. So we were thrilled when they contacted us to collaborate on their newest project. The client, having lived in Stowe for many years vacationing together as a family, is looking forward to the next period of their lives with their sons and their own, new and growing, families. They acknowledge the desire to continue to vacation as a much larger, multi-generational family and the need for a larger home. We are working together to determine whether a particular compact lot can meet the family goals and project needs. The lot is perfect. Located in a well established neighborhood in the heart of Stowe, Vermont. We were hired to perform the initial programming, site development plans and design a custom home to meet the changing needs of the client’s family. A contingency of the purchase and sales agreements was obtaining Schematic approval from the Architectural Review Board so we began design work quickly in order to obtain approval in order for the clients to purchase the lot, which they have done.

This mountain shingle style home features a large timberframe and wood burning fireplaces. A workshop for him to work on his furniture building and a large open mudroom for the family. A great space to serve the ebb and flow of family members as they head out, in all seasons, on family adventures to Stowe Mountain Resort.

We are in the midst of our design work and anticipate breaking ground some time within the next year, so stay tuned for on-going progress.
