Houses for Good Living... Royal Barry Wills’ best known book aptly describes his 24 Hood Rd. His ideas of good design followed a simple set of descriptive truths, including generous central fireplaces, careful shingle spacing and often, ahead of his time, opened-up interiors. The care of good design clad in white allows for the expressions of each owner’s taste and sense of style. The arrival along a brick path framed with exquisite perennial gardens is a fitting beginning. Rich paneled rooms, wide doorways, all pleasing and masterful proportions, a spectacular 4 season sunroom overlooking a large expanse of lawn filled with professionally landscaped gardens with the classic white picket fence. All of this, set on a stunning oversized private lot, close to Mann Hill Beach.
