Rand Residence
Part of a new residential community, the Rand Residence is sited in the woods facing a cove off the north side of Lake Winnepesaukee. Located on a steeply sloped site, the house is a variation on the traditional “salt-box” form, enlivened by a series of gabled dormers and porches. By using long-span joists for framing at the second floor, a large open area is created at the first floor including areas for kitchen, dining, and living room. A barbecue deck, screened porch, and covered porch facing the water provide many opportunities to enjoy the beauty of the site. Bedrooms are located on the second floor; the master bedroom features a walk-out deck and a sitting area with a spectacular view. The adjacent wing of the house includes the garage with spacious guest room above.
