The Stone Cottage is a 2006 Country-French inspired home near Cumberland, Maryland, designed and built by Kelly L. Moran. Built using white limestone, a traditional material commonly found in France and not native to the Eastern United States, a slate roof and post-and-beam construction gives this home the appearance of an old medieval structure when in fact it was completed in 2006. The exterior of the Stone Cottage uses a technique called "Slush & Brush" that was employed thousands of years ago, using a wood paddle instead of a trowel and not raking back the joints. The Stone Cottage is only {{convert|1800|sqft|m2}} and features an open plan Great Room where the kitchen, dining area and living room are located. The open plan design allows for a family to experience 'connected space' instead of being in separate rooms in a home Moran is an advocate of smaller "cozy house" design. Quoted in the Washington Post AT HOME Magazine, Moran talks of smaller homes being a current trend in the US residential building market. The Stone Cottage has been featured in several magazines. It is a private residence.[1][2][3][4][5] References1. ^Washington Post AT HOME Magazine, Summer 2007 by Stephanie Cavanaugh {{coord|39|32|31.75|N|78|53|31.95|W|region:US-MD_type:landmark|display=title}}2. ^Cottages & Bungalows Magazine, Summer 2007, "Building History" by Laura Meyers 3. ^Maryland Life Magazine, May/June 2007, "Gallic Getaway" by Martha Thomas 4. ^Timber Homes Illustrated, February 2008, story by Teresa L.
