Bramblewood Farm

Our clients asked Dalgliesh Gilpin Paxton Architects to design a refined French Country home using warm and durable materials.

We created a fieldstone house with limestone accents and classical detailing to look as though it grew from the surrounding mountain landscape.

The house’s spine is situated on an east/west axis to maximize southern views and natural light and to enhance the connection between indoor and outdoor spaces.

Throughout the house, custom details, such as stair railings, light fixtures, stone mantels, and vanities, showcase our attention to craft on the interior as well as the exterior.

In contrast to the expansive southern views, the north side of the house with its mountain backdrop provides a secluded refuge.

Here the screened porch offers a cool, shaded oasis in summer months, as well as a protected, cozy outdoor room with fireplace in cool weather.
