The Ridge House

Atop an isolated hill in Manchester-by-the-Sea, MA sits this gloriously unconventional modern home by MGA | Marcus Gleysteen Architects

 

Spaces of this home extend out toward the cliff's edge, offering stunning vistas of the Atlantic Ocean below.

Two stories of glass and steel frame the view, and a trapezoidal canopy shades the patio from the sun.

A freestanding fireplace in the home's foyer makes a statement. The ultra-modern design is made of large, natural-cut boulders and stainless steel.

The home was sustainably designed - the window system uses triple-glazed heat mirrored glass.

Every room in this home has a gorgeous view of the outdoors, including the master bedroom with its sweeping vista of the forest and ocean beyond.
