House along the Severn River

front view

This house is along the Severn River, just above Round Bay. The architect Robert W. Shutler (from Arlington, Virginia) designed the house in a mix of American Craftsman and New England shingle styles. Said he, a kind of Craftsman look, some sense of the nautical - nothing literal, with a flavor of a New England shingle.
