historic home reimagined

This historic home was thoughtfully reimagined to enhance its outdoor living while preserving the character and architectural integrity that define the property. Every new intervention was designed to feel appropriate to the home's original architecture, creating a seamless relationship between old and new.

A new brick driveway, retaining walls, walkways, and a crisp white pergola strengthen the home's arrival experience, while layered planting and landscape lighting enhance the architecture without competing for attention. In the backyard, a covered patio, brick fireplace, and rectangular pool establish a series of outdoor living spaces that feel both timeless and inviting. Carefully selected materials, including brick, travertine, and natural wood, reinforce the home's historic character while introducing the comforts of modern outdoor living.
