River Valley Farmhouse

River Valley Farmhouse

Located on the Connecticut River, the design of this four-bedroom home was influenced by Shaker architecture and the goal of capturing the character of a New England farmhouse. It was sited to preserve as much farmland as possible while providing views up and down the river valley from the principal rooms. The house and barn define an outdoor room that functions as an entrance court and frames the view across the valley into Vermont. The barn contains a studio apartment, office, workshop, boat room and equipment storage. The energy performance of the house approaches net zero.
