Board-and-batten siding, metal roof accents, and generous covered porches ground the home in the architectural language of the American South. At over 5,000 square feet, the home is organized around a central great room that connects to the kitchen and outdoor living. Blackstone's team delivered the project with careful attention to the material authenticity that separates genuine craftsmanship from trend-following. ## What we built 1.
