From fire to fine new home…quite a year for the Williams

A year, to the day, after their wonderful old house in Damariscotta Mills burned---a total loss---the Williams moved into their new home. What a journey from sheer devastation to a magical new house, same place and similar shape but all new from the foundation to the roof.  Features in the new house were selected for energy efficiency, fine viewing of the fish ladder in the backyard, and for Russ and Diana’s lives as they are today.

We had the pleasure of building their new home, working with them to define and design spaces, select materials, and to bring their vision into reality. They were dear neighbors and friends before the fire and even better friends today. A special year for all of us!

The burned house comes down...

The new house is almost finished,
The back of the house, on the way down...

The back of the house today, a few finishing touches left.
