Thornton Bay · coastal home · photography

Thornton Bay and the coastline from above
The home sits above Thornton Bay, the ocean across the road.

An elevated family home above the Thames Coast at Thornton Bay. Native timber floors, ocean views from most of the rooms, and parklike grounds with space for the boat. It takes warm light well, so I leaned into the sun coming through the windows and the view out of each room.
