Zimmer Residence

Devine Bungalow Eagles Mere, Pennsylvania

This is the design for a small vacation home nestled in the woods. The 1260 square foot structure has an open floor plan to accommodate social gatherings which have become a signature of the community. The front entry court and porch, the main room on the ground floor and the rear porch all flow together.

Set on a gentle slope the house sits off the ground to the rear. The stone chimney rises in the interior through a story and a half space linking the main space of the first floor to the bedrooms above.
