03 Point 3
This residence for a couple retiring to the North Carolina coast occupies a site cradled by a picturesque par three golf hole with views across the Intracoastal Waterway through an inlet to the ocean. Surrounded by native grasses it sits perched on a hill, reminiscent of a scene from an Andrew Wyeth painting, it works in harmony with the golf course to become a seamless terrain. Two massive stucco cubes topped with cedar pyramidal roofs and furniture-like mahogany protrusions form the main body of the house. The crown jewel pavilion, skinned in mahogany and glass, topped with a pre-patinated copper pyramidal roof, is sited to simultaneously take advantage of views of a skilled putt to the natural beauty of the waterway.
