Designed by architects Megan Carter and Bridgett Shank, this abode known as the Wave House gets its name from a pair of repeating midnightbronze standing seams in the metal roof. Perched on a hillside, the home enjoys bay views and floortoceiling windows along the western fall flood the house with natural light. The listing hosts a plethora of outdoor gathering spaces to entertain an abundance of guests. The design pays homage to Midcentury and Scandinavian techniques and was completed earlier this year.
