At the site of their new home, the homeowners made a great effort to cut as few trees as possible so they could forgo window treatments and enjoy panoramic views. The Craftsman-style home features a garage with space for a tractor and wood storage, a large fieldstone fireplace in the living room, an exercise room, as well as a wine cellar.

Judges said: The interior of this home is lovely with well-executed, fine woodworking details. There is a very comfortable feeling to the house, with wonderful views and daylighting. The exterior massing and organization is very well done.
