This cottage has simple and restrained appearance with slightly flaring roof and dark wood facade, in color contrast to the dark brown building these openings and frames are painted white.

A wall of glass blurring the lines between building and backyard, while white trim leaves the appearance of a snow-kissed façade year-round.
