Southern Albemarle County Residence

What better way to enjoy the sunset years of life than in a home inspired by timeless French Country architecture, nestled in the rolling hills of Albemarle County? Thoughtfully crafted to reflect the owners’ long-held vision, this residence features graceful, curved-roof and chimney lines, authentic clay roof tiles, and brick finished with a specialized whitewash that softens the façade and completes its Old World character.

In collaboration with Dalgliesh Gilpin Paxton Architects for the architectural design and Waterstreet Studio for site layout and select hardscape elements, the project blends craftsmanship and artistry to create a warm, refined home perfectly suited for its idyllic setting—and for the season of life it was designed to celebrate.
