Nestled in the woods of Torrington, Connecticut, this 4,500-sf residence is strategically sited with views of a lake and surrounding forests.

The formal rooms located at the front of the house – including the living room, dining room and entry foyer – are arranged as a composition of staggered, vertical, gable roof shapes.

The casual spaces located at the rear of the house – including the family room, kitchen, hot tub room, and screened porch – are arranged horizontally and open onto a wood deck and stone patio with direct views of Timber Lake and its surrounding knolls.
