To properly capture the site’s phenomenal views, architect James Harwood built the house, in essence, backwards — with the rear and side facing the road and the front door remaining invisible from that vantage point. Photos by Lisa Vollmer Photography

A rear view of the Reisfeld home, formerly the Elling’s Guest House. The Reisfelds worked with Stephen Fitch of Fitch Landscaping and Jesse Bunce of Bunce Property Services to transform an overgrown lawn space that had been plagued by invasive species into an inviting backyard and patio space. They chose pea gravel to surround the fire pit and raised-bed gardens, and created walkways out of stone salvaged from a former patio. Fitch also helped rebuild the property’s original stone retaining wall.
