In the process of renovating this house for a multi-generational family, we restored the original Shingle Style façade with a flared lower edge that covers window bays and added a brick cladding to the lower story. On the interior, we introduced a continuous stairway that runs from the first to the fourth floors. The stairs surround a steel and glass elevator that is centered below a skylight and invites natural light down to each level. The home’s traditionally proportioned formal rooms flow naturally into more contemporary adjacent spaces that are unified through consistency of materials and trim details.
“As architects specializing in custom residential work, both new and renovations, we have completed a half dozen jobs with MPB. They are a pleasure to work with: excellent project management, very high-quality construction, and highly enjoyable people to work with.” —David Gast, Gast Architects
