You approach from the east.  The house perches just below the crest of the road so it isn’t visible until you are within about 100 yards.  The lake is on the other side of the house and the creek/ravine is to the left (southwest).

Arriving at the house you are in a relatively intimate space between the main house and the carriage house (behind you in this picture).  The driveway winds around the “back” of the house.  Entering via the front door you will walk upon a small porch/deck (not yet constructed)and then pass between two massive stone piers and under a rough-hewn antique beam (not installed yet in this photo).  The panoramic view is to your right..    NEXT--->
