Decorative steel bollard light- Aspen pattern Tree illumination was added to visually tie the landscaping and the home together. Accent lighting on waterfalls and accent walls extends the visual size of the home and adds warmth to the lighting scenes due to the soft wash of light on the warm beige stone.

The original house, built in the early 18th century, was moved to this location two hundred years later. This whole house project includes an outdoor stage, a library, two barns, an exercise complex and extensive landscaping with tennis court and pools. A new stair winds upward to the study built as a widow's walk on the roof. A large window provides a view to the sea-wall at the bottom of the garden and Buzzard's Bay beyond. The new stair allows views from the central front hall into the Living Room, which spans the waterside. The bluestone-edged swimming pool and hot pool merge with the landscape, creating the illusion that the pool and the sea are continuous.
