Thoughtful design and detailed craft combine to create this timelessly elegant home custom designed by Chambers + Chambers Architects, located in Ross, a small town in Marin County, California. The contemporary vocabulary and classic gabled roof harmonize with the surrounding neighborhood and natural landscape.

Built from the ground up, a two-story structure in the front encompasses the private quarters, while the one-story extension in the rear houses the Great Room – kitchen, dining, and living – with vaulted ceilings and an abundance of natural light. Large sliding doors open from the Great Room onto a south-facing patio and lawn creating an inviting indoor/outdoor space for family and friends to gather.
