Gable House
The Gable House is at once simple and refined, traditional and contemporary. Its steeply pitched gabled roof, outdoor brick fireplace, and diamond-patterned chimney accents lend a distinctive character, echoed in the gabled dormer and cedar shingle siding. The rectangular plan and expressive roofline give it a quiet modesty, while the careful detailing reveals its deeper richness.
Inside, a warm and convivial main room forms the heart of the home. With windows on three sides, a 10-foot-high wood-beamed ceiling, and a brick hearth, the space is filled with natural light and welcoming presence. continued

The primary bedroom is conveniently located on the main floor. Upstairs, two bedrooms offer unique charm: one with an L-shaped layout beneath sloped sidewalls and a generous skylight; the other, just a few steps higher, with a vaulted ceiling soaring over 13 feet and a tucked-away bed alcove.
A delightful surprise lies above—a cozy attic loft accessed by an alternating tread stair, perfect as a reading nook, studio, or imaginative play space. Below, a full basement provides ample room for utilities, storage, or future living potential.
Pair it with the Gable Garage, which echoes the home’s form and signature details.
