Seaview Splendor
In the main house, only the bones remain. A previous maze of rooms was replaced with a program that meets the needs of today’s discerning family. Symmetry and logic were inserted by centering the front door, adding a pair of balanced chimneys to the roofline, and rhythmically placing windows on the exterior. New bay windows repeat on the front- and back-facing gambrels, as do double decker porches which add romance and character.
Inside, a central gallery now organizes the full interior program and links both the first and second floor to front and back decks. Bright spaces are clad in custom millwork and crown, elevating the interior presentation and creating spaces as beautiful as they are functional. The outdoor program is comprehensive and inviting, maximizing opportunities for enjoyment on a parcel just larger than half an acre. Guest quarters above the carriage house and a full aquatic program make hosting visitors a joy at what is now a magnificent summertime retreat.
