Vacation Destination
2012 Merit Award Residential Design CT Chapter American Society of Landscape Architects
This vacation residence is located in the Shelter Harbor peninsula in South County, Rhode Island and has direct water access to Quonochontaug Pond.
Privacy from the road is provided through layered planting areas and a fenced courtyard. The northern end of this courtyard leads via steps to the lower level driveway which provides access directly into the basement level multi-car garage.
The rear yard provides access to a dock and waterfront deck as well as the natural rocky shoreline. Other outdoor areas include a patio and kitchen directly adjacent to the indoor kitchen and dining areas, and an outdoor water feature
and stone deck adjacent to the living room.
The overall focus of this design was to provide privacy, enhance water views, present clean geometric lines to accent the architecture and provide a smooth flow of circulation between the house and the various outdoor spaces.
