LOCATION
We'll tell you about this gorgeous, discreetly sophisticated residence but first you should know of Stonehurst. It is beautiful and most unusual, almost foreign, where over millenniums the glaciers scoured the earth bare and the sea dwarfs the hardiest of trees, yet delicate lichen and a variety of berries thrive in the salty mists.

Carved by glaciers, the landscape has been flooded by the sea forming fjords and quiet coves framed in slate-coloured stone. The antique cottages of fishermen punctuate the rockbound seashores, as does The Farley, a modern counterpart.

Beyond the maritime vernacular of the traditional facade lies a highly advanced home distinguished by uncommon elegance. On the main level two large, well-proportioned principle rooms that are the dwelling's masterpieces flank a centre core, comprised of back-to-back fireplaces and a handsome staircase. Boasting a 10-foot-high embossed tin ceiling, the kitchen cum dining room is simply remarkable in both style and function. Off the kitchen are the mudroom, walk-in pantry, laundry room and an office. The living room is equally fashionable and has a formal quality but it's not the least bit snobbish. It opens to a two storey portico-like porch with columns supporting a walkout for the master bedroom. There is a cozy reading room tucked away beside the stairs. Enjoy water views from every room.
