Stone Haven

A hand-restored limestone house, kept for gathering

Every wall is quarried limestone. The floors are stone slab and wide pine. The fittings are unlacquered brass that will darken with use, as they are meant to. It has taken years, and it was never done quickly on purpose.

The house

A house that seats everyone at one table

Long dining, deep hearths, a piano in the front room, and bedrooms under the eaves. Built for the kind of week where three generations arrive on a Thursday and nobody wants to leave on Sunday.

It holds heat the way thick stone does — which, in this valley, is not something every old house can claim.
