ROBERT A. M. STERN: House at Blue Water Hill (2007)

Have you seen the House at Blue Water Hill (2007) by Robert A. M. Stern?  If you haven't, it is truly magnificent (which should come as no surprise since Mr. Stern designed it).  I've posted a few screenshots below, but you can visit RAMSA.com for more photos...
Sky-blue stained shingles, leaded hand-blown glass, and white-painted shutters and window boxes at the double-hung windows give the house a casual feel of early twentieth-century beach houses in Maine or Nantucket. Picturesque gables and dormers at the gambrel roof reduce the apparent height of the house. Classical detailing, hand-scraped oak floors, beadboard paneling, and cork ceilings bring the simple charm indoors.
Look at how the home is situated.  The blue hydrangeas complement the facade...

An inviting outdoor living area, featuring terraces, porches, pool, etc.
The view, the woodwork, the fireplace, the sense of intimacy -- need I say more?
And speaking of a view...

The staircase.... 
The entrance hall... A truly spectacular home!
