From Carriage House to Cottage

Project: The Homeowners wanted to expand their Historic Estate and make the Carriage House a fully operational Cottage to retire in, allowing their daughter's family of six to move into the primary residence.

Planning: The feel of the Cottage needed to reflect the same finish level but with cleaner and more contemporary feel the homeowners have grown to love from various spaces they have visited. We carefully planned out the template to work from maximizing the square footage. We kept the ceilings high and the space open by adding windows and french doors wherever we could. The homeowners are also master builders and have a sophisticated eye for detail. Combining our suggestions and planning out the space we added the stair to the living space opening up the core of the structure to the Main Living Room. We are in the process of finalizing the finishes as the construction is under way. Enjoy watching the construction progress with us!
