RIDGESIDE VINEYARD FARMHOUSE, A NEW HOME IN THE ROLLING HILLS OF VIRGINIA, DESIGNED BY BARNES VANZE
The Washington, DC-based firm of Barnes Vanze designed this new farmhouse in the Virginia countryside for a recently-retired couple who decided to pursue their dream of opening a vineyard. According to the architects, "the house is conceived of as a farm compound, a small village. It is sited so that one climbs the hill and enters the house from the high side, saving the overwhelming view for your entry into the (home)."*

The entry court (above) provides a glimpse of the stunning views to come.*
What I find most impressive about this residence is that Barnes Vanze managed to create a house that celebrates simple country living, but the overall design still maintains a sense of sophistication.

"The program is organized into three buildings: the main house, a master bedroom connected by a glass breezeway, and a bank barn connected by an open breezeway."*
