WELCOME TO LEDGE HOUSE, designed by renowned architects Theodore and Theodore. The home, a finalist in the 2006 AIA Maine Design Awards, is a spectacular example of sustainable design taking advantage of the sunlight throughout the day. The 5-acre parcel includes the new installation of a habitat hedgerow - an ecological garden designed by Larkspur Design of Portland. The expansive windows and slider provide an up-close view of the new landscape to the south. The east facing kitchen with new appliances opens to a new screened porch for early morning or evening dining. The open floor plan on the first floor has concrete floors with radiant heat which provides warmth in the winter and natural cooling in the summer. The living room features a wood burning fireplace and opens to a newly enclosed second screened porch to the west for daytime or evening. The first floor of the ''ell'' may act as a guest wing with full bath, office, den or studio with a 2nd floor loft. The second floor has three bedrooms. The primary bedroom has an ensuite bathroom. The second and third bedrooms share a balcony and a Jack and Jill bathroom. Construction materials include cypress wood for the siding and first floor ceiling, a standing seam metal roof, solar hot water collectors, Loewen Canadian fir windows, radiant heat and the addition of new flat-panel radiators to the second floor bedrooms. The bathrooms all feature radiant floor heat. Other recent improvements include a 1 1⁄2 car garage with an extended overhang, a whole house generator, a new high efficiency boiler, Cado shelving installed in the living room, 2 screened porches, and more.

Ledge House, designed by renown architects Theodore and Theodore as their personal residence on the coast of Maine in the Newtown settlement. Near the Kennebec River and just a short walk to Squirrel Point Light. The house is oriented to true south and takes advantage of sun light throughout the day. The kitchen is in the east and open to the dining, living room and concrete fireplace on the west. The outdoor rooms at either end extend the dimension of the house in warmer weather. The ''L'' shaped plan creates and entry courtyard and captures afternoon light. The ground floor of the ''ell'' acts as a guest wing apartment, office and/or studio. Solar hot water collectors on the southeast corner of the roof actively supplement the passive solar gains. Interior materials which include douglas fir, windows, cypress ceiling, and steel columns all have natural finishes. Truly a home that ties the house to the place. See Attached Feature List
