Salt Spring Island, in progress

1,797 sf Single Family Home

Long Harbour House is located on a rocky knoll overlooking the forest. A single shed roof slopes in the direction of the terrain to hug the landscape and minimize the height of the building from below. The home is arranged in an L shape plan which frames a large wood deck facing west. A large arbutus tree is positioned near the deck and provides a natural feature visible from almost every room in the house. At the interior, exposed wood joists over a sunken Living Room highlight the roof framing and provide a cozy feel to the home.
