< Back to Projects

This unique 240-acre residential property exists outside the village of Paatsalu, Estonia, on the edge of the Baltic Sea. Nestled within a nature preserve, the site is defined by centuries-old stone walls, juniper pine forests, and meadows, but lacked hierarchy and a sense of arrival. A place to retire, the client wanted to gently develop the land with a new residence, a machine shed/guest house, greenhouse, boathouse, and a range of unique destinations that would allow her to contemplate the beauty of nature. MSLA’s master plan brings clarity and refinement to the historic homestead, honors the existing natural elements and provides a framework to experience the land in a revealing progression of spaces that orient visitors to the sea, sky and meadows.
