This client bought an older house with amazing views of a canal leading to the bay. The existing house, a traditional late 80’s Cape Cod, did not maximize those views. Goals of the project were to update the feel of the house, add a modern/contemporary addition on the rear, and open up the living space. This truly was a collaborative process including a last minute decision to install a flush beam and remove two interior walls from the loft space, which made a dramatic impact when entering the house, and also in allowing gorgeous late afternoon light to flood the entire living space. The end result is a hidden gem with surprises at every turn.
