A chimney fire prompted the owners to reconsider their 250-year-old home and how it might better support the way they wanted to live.<\/p>

They wanted more room, but they also valued the house’s age, its rocky setting, natural light, and connection to the landscape.<\/p>

The addition created a new kitchen, sitting room, and entry on the first floor. Upstairs, an expanded bedroom and bath were connected to the living areas by a new stair. Views were opened, daylight was strengthened, and stone found on the property became part of the new work.<\/p>

Rather than separate the addition from its setting, the decisions allowed the old house, new spaces, and landscape to belong together.<\/p>
