The owners of this new 4,000 SF home, located adjacent to a golf course in Cetral Oregon, wanted a house which was understated when viewed from the street but which opened up at the back to allow enjoyment of the spectacular views of the Three Sisters mountains peaks offered by the site. In response the home was designed to appear as a single story with a long and low sheltering roof on the street side while at the back it expands to reveal two floors with large stretches of glass on both allowing the owners to enjoy the views which led them to initially select this particular lot.

The home's exterior finishes are selected to blend with the environment. Elements such as natural stone and stained wood columns and beams contrast with flawless concrete work and subtly painted trim. The interior finishes adhere to the use of natural materials with cherry wood floors and stone counter tops but also introduce painted trim and wainscotting to create a bit more of a cottage feel. Of particular note is the spectacular staircase with a two story window at the landing in which the North Sister's peak is framed. Similarly the small sunroom with it's gas burning stove and views of the golf course feels a world away on a snowy winter day.
