Perched atop a bluff overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, this new residence adds a modern twist to the classic Shingle Style. The house is anchored to the land by stone retaining walls made entirely of granite taken from the site during construction. Clad almost entirely in cedar shingles, the house will weather to a classic grey. Photo Credit: Blind Dog Studio

Restoration of a ca. 1870 Victorian home in suburban Boston.

Using an 1890's black and white photograph as a reference, this Queen Anne Victorian underwent a full restoration. On the edge of the Montclair neighborhood, this home exudes classic "Painted Lady" appeal on the exterior with an interior filled with both traditional detailing and modern conveniences. The restoration includes a new main floor guest suite, a renovated master suite, private elevator, and an elegant kitchen with hearth room.

Tucked into a corner of the kitchen area is a spiral staircase that was retrieved from the burned ruins of a 16th century French castle and retrofitted for current building codes. The children enjoy using the staircase which leads to the upstairs playroom. Photo Credit: Knotting Hill Interiors
