Balnearn House
This distinctive home is situated on a wooded slope on the north shore of the Loch Tay. Although a large house an early design decision was made to break the overall form into smaller elements thus minimising the scale and impact of the building on this sensitive site. The main accommodation is housed in the central traditional house form and additions to the west and east house ancillary spaces. Steeply pitched roofs sail over the house reflecting the tress canopy. The roofs form a sheltered living space among the trees blurring the boundaries between inside and outside spaces.
