The architect’s vision for this project was to preserve the classic elegance of the Georgian Revival style while updating the floor plan to a contemporary open layout. They aimed to create visually connected spaces filled with sunlight that seamlessly integrate with outdoor terraces, gardens, 15'x38' pool, and Cabana. The design process focused on combining beauty with functionality, integrating timeless design elements with innovative building and energy-efficient systems. The important design elements included well-proportioned rooms, symmetry, finely crafted millwork, a red brick Georgian facade with limestone accents, French doors with transom windows, fireplaces with custom surrounds, and wrap-around terraces. The goal was to create a classic home ready for contemporary living, warm and livable, and with direct connectivity to the outdoors. A most sought-after location, steps to Newton Centre, minutes to The Chestnut Hill Street and 15 minutes to Boston.
