English Country Style Home Tour

A brushed concrete driveway leads to the Contemporary English Country style home with espresso antique colored, handmade brick and CertainTeed “Independence” shingle roof in a Georgetown Gray.

Essential to the design style is the distinct window composition – inspired by English architect Sir Edwin Lutyens, one of the premier British architects of the 20th Century. The aluminum clad wood windows (Pella), have a putty glaze and Low-E, energy efficient. The dormer windows have James Hardie Artisan, lap siding, with mitered corners and were custom designed in collaboration with Vintage Millworks.
