On family land stretching back through generations…

A long, meandering family house was thoughtfully designed addressing the ocean vista from their expansive bluff perch, discreetly tucked into the tree-line preserving the views from their guest house perched high above it on the hillside.

It is one room deep for the entire length along the view with a generous eat-in kitchen in the center capturing the spirit of the family’s closeness & food centric focus, with wings extending in both directions accommodating the rest of the common & private spaces.

There is an extensive light filled lower level with recreational facilities for the sports-centric family that opens out onto a path to the beach.

Indigenous planting further ingratiate the house into the landscape complete with a small orchard, grasses & flowers and a robust vegetable & herb garden.

A perfect union of a breathtaking site and a handsome family house capturing the essence of its owners in their environs.
