This master suite opens to a covered alfresco seating area on one side of the courtyard. A wood trellis at the top of the gabled roof provides welcome shade in summer, while in winter the sun is low enough to penetrate. The courtyard is largely grave

This master suite opens to a covered alfresco seating area on one side of the courtyard. A wood trellis at the top of the gabled roof provides welcome shade in summer, while in winter the sun is low enough to penetrate. The courtyard is largely gravel, planted with wild grasses and a grove of shade trees. Architecture by Nick Noyes.
