Clean lines, symmetry and large massings define this modern farmhouse. Exterior details like a standing-seam metal roof and black rimmed windows bring out the modern style, while board and batten siding and stone skirting and walls on the facade reflect the more traditional elements of this working farm. Step inside and your eye is drawn up and out to the pasture views through the wall of windows that frames the dramatic floating staircase. Glass panels are used instead of traditional balustrades. Wood steps sit atop a black metal stair stretcher. The design purposefully does not distract from the view of the outside or the loftiness of the vaulted rooms. Taking full advantage of the pastural setting and capturing the dynamic views from every window make this home feel perfectly situated in this environment.
