Boonesville Residence

Status:

On The Boards

Boonesville, VA

This single-family residence draws on a modern barn and farmhouse vernacular, with connected gable-roof volumes of varying heights linked by a lower spine. Dark standing-seam metal roofing, vertical wood siding, and a stone base and chimney mass ground the home in its rural setting. Full-height glazing at the great room and primary bedroom gable ends frames mountain views, with exposed rafter tails visible through the glass. A full-length covered porch along the rear elevation is elevated on piers with cable and glass railing where the sloped site drops away, opening the home's living spaces to the landscape. Inside, vaulted, beamed ceilings carry through the open-concept great room, kitchen, and dining area, with light wood flooring and plaster-look walls keeping the focus on the views. The primary suite echoes the gable glazing of the great room, with private patio access and an en-suite bath built around a freestanding tub positioned at a window. Designed with aging in place in mind, the home keeps primary living on a single level while embracing passive design strategies suited to the site's viewsheds, wind, and sun conditions.
