Small Footprint. Custom Character.
At 676 square feet, this home was designed to make thoughtful use of every space while still incorporating the details and craftsmanship of a custom built home.
The two story design provides two bedrooms and one and a half bathrooms while maintaining a comfortable connection between the living spaces and the surrounding waterfront property.
Marvin windows bring natural light into the home and take advantage of the Giles Pond setting, while hardwood flooring and natural wood details add warmth throughout the interior.
A Custom Accent Wall With a Story
One of the most unique features of this home is the dramatic reclaimed wood accent wall behind the spiral staircase.
The homeowners sourced reclaimed wood from an old church, giving the material a history long before it became part of their new home. Chandler & Sons Builders installed the reclaimed wood across the entire wall, extending from the first floor to the second floor behind the spiral staircase.
The result is a one of a kind architectural feature that brings warmth, texture, history, and character into the center of the home.
It is a detail that could never be replicated exactly, and one that makes this custom home uniquely theirs.
Exterior Materials and Craftsmanship
The exterior combines vinyl siding with custom metal trim, Marvin windows, and Versetta Stone veneer to create a durable and finished appearance suited to the home's Maine setting.
The Versetta Stone adds texture and architectural interest, while the custom metal trim provides clean finishing details throughout the exterior. Material selection and installation were approached with both appearance and long term durability in mind.
Built for Maine
Building in Maine means considering much more than appearance.
Changing temperatures, snow, wind, moisture, and long winters all influence material selection and construction details. This home combines materials selected for durability with custom details that give the property its own character.
The result is a compact custom home designed for year round living in a beautiful waterfront setting.
