House Tour | James & Christine Built a Fairytale Treehouse in The Woods of Connecticut

To SHOP items inspired by our home tours, visit https://shopmy.us/shop/homeworthy On today's episode of Homeworthy, designer duo James and Christine of Stewart-Schafer welcome us to their 1980s contemporary home in Easton, Connecticut—a stunning retreat on 18 acres where clean lines, warm wood, and understated elegance define every space. James fell instantly in love when they discovered this house while living in New York—the exposed beams, double-height living room, and forest views were irresistible. Six years later, they've thoughtfully restored it with micro cement floors, custom rift white oak millwork, and honed stone throughout. Their design philosophy merges James's linear minimalism with Christine's love of organic textures, staying true to the home's contemporary soul while making it livable for their family and big dog. The kitchen preserves original 1984 German cabinetry —a testament to quality craftsmanship—with updated surfaces bringing it into the present. Christine hand-dyed a modular sofa after scoring pieces at an outlet, while their spa-like bathroom features a 900-pound imported sink and custom millwork. Every ceramic, piece of art, and vintage find collected during their travels tells a story, from pottery discovered in Rome to the white vase from their first trip to Iceland decades ago. This home proves that listening to a space's original intent while adding personal touches creates something timeless—a gathering place where their son is growing up surrounded by nature, new family traditions, and endless memories.
