A warm and beautifully composed country estate set within the Connecticut landscape. This new construction project combines cedar siding, local stone, and slate roofing with a layout designed for both grand entertaining and comfortable family living. The evening photography captures the home at its most striking — every window glowing against the dusk sky.

Set against a private Connecticut landscape, this country estate was designed to feel timeless, comfortable, and beautifully connected to its surroundings. The new construction features cedar shingles, a cedar roof, local stone, crisp white trim, and generous windows that bring warmth and character to the exterior. Covered porches, layered rooflines, and thoughtful architectural details give the home a strong presence without feeling overdone. It is a classic New England home built for family living, entertaining, and years of enjoyment.

Description

This custom shingle-style residence required significant upfront planning and heavy site development to make the property work properly. Built on challenging steep slopes, the project involved careful coordination around grading, access, drainage, septic placement, parking, and zoning requirements. The home’s footprint was maximized within the property setbacks while still preserving room for generous parking, a future pool, and a well-planned outdoor living environment. Extensive porches, custom millwork, and refined interior detailing give the home the character, craftsmanship, and livability expected in a true high-end custom build.
