Murphy & Co. Design They are dog ear-shaped shingles which came from an 1810 Pennsylvania barn. Thank you.

Stone - Is this a currently-available stone on the exterior? If not, would you know if there is an available stone that would approximate this look? Thank you! »

Murphy & Co. Design This is reclaimed exterior stone. They make some manufactured stone products that do a decent job of simulating this look, but nothing quite like the real stone. Thanks.

I would love to know the square footage of this house and see the floor plan. »

Murphy & Co. Design Hello, the square footage is 860. I'm sorry we can't share the floor plan, as it was a custom design for our client and they would like to keep that private. Thanks for your inquiry!

What Houzz contributors are saying:
"My client is an avid gardener, and the property looks like an arboretum," says Murphy. On this side of the house, the owner's green thumb and collecting skills meet — roses climb an old French orangerie window. A weeping spruce adds its unique profile to the site.
