Design Description
This classic, traditional Shingle-style home was strikingly transformed from an outdated 1950’s production ranch-style home, with a complete renovation of the entire first floor and an entire second floor addition. The result is a completely updated home with an open, functional floor plan with classic, timeless architecture.
Adherence to authentic Shingle-style design elements were carried throughout the exterior of the home as well as throughout the interior detailing and material selections for a classic elegance. The façade of the home features shake siding above the original brick base, groupings of mulled double-hung windows, playful steeply-pitched gable rooflines, bracket detailing at the multi-level eaves and a large front-entry porch with classical columns. The 2-story foyer entry is light and welcoming and features beautiful, traditional white-painted millwork panels with an elegant staircase which wraps around the entry space to an unexpected and charming second floor reading loft that overlooks the entry. Beautiful, classic white-painted millwork is carried throughout the home with the deep coffered ceiling in the sunroom, a Shingle-style mantel and surround of the fireplace in the breakfast dining, the cubby lockers in the mud hall and throughout the trim work of the house. White Shingle-style cabinetry is installed in the kitchen and butler’s pantry and hand-scraped, dark-stained walnut floors flow throughout the rooms to integrate the spaces. Beautiful large groupings of windows capture views of the lush lawns and mature trees surrounding the home and allow natural light to flood into the rooms to create a connection with the outdoors.
