American Country House
Designed in the architectural style of A. Hayes Town, a favorite of the clients, this house is all about comfortable living.
The gracious entrance features a stylized portico with flanking verandas. Saltillo Mexican tile is the perfect complement to the brick and stucco facade.
Floor to ceiling windows and French doors allow for ample natural light. The bricks in the round columns supporting the fireplace mantel were individually cut by hand.
Patterned stone tiles in the entrance hall contrast and complement the wide plank wood floors used throughout the downstairs.
A diamond coffered ceiling adds visual dimension to the Living Room off the Entry Hall.
The exterior brick was used inside, seen here in the arched wall separating the kitchen from the Keeping Room.
A movable glass wall opens fully, allowing free flow between the Outdoor Pavilion and the gardens beyond. Note the cupola capping the vaulted ceiling.
The rear façade opens out to the landscape with a large metal seamed roof covered porch, perfect for entertaining.
The project was realized with the help of general contractor Jim Reilly of Reilly Homes and
interior designer Lynn Reese.
