Chester House / Mackay-Lyons Sweetapple Architects
In Chester, an oceanside village on Nova Scotia’s South Shore, this 1,350 square-foot house was realized for Clare Morris, a woman living in Seattle who was seeking to relocate to Canada. Her instructions were to create a modest and functional house: “a straightforward home that feels good.”
