Down a quiet road in Roxbury, Connecticut, sits an estate that had already done the hard work. Seventeen acres, antique barn bones, and decades of earned character — all of it waiting for a design sensibility to match. The kitchen, dining room, primary suite, “party barn”, and guest spaces were reimagined without touching what made the property irreplaceable. The original beams stayed, and key architectural elements were preserved. The rest caught up.
