CHATHAM MARSHVIEW HOUSE This Cape Cod green home provides a destination for visiting family, support of a snowbird lifestyle, and an expression of the homeowner’s energy conscious values. Looking over the salt marsh with Nantucket Sound in the distance, this new home offers single level living to accommodate aging in place, and a strong connection to the outdoors. The homeowners can easily enjoy the deck, walk to the nearby beach, or spend time with family, while the house works to produce nearly all the energy it consumes. The exterior, clad in the Cape’s iconic Eastern white cedar shingles, is modern in detailing, yet recognizable and familiar in form.

This little girl bedroom and bathroom are what childhood dreams are made of. The bathroom features floral mosaic marble tile and floral hardware with the claw-foot tub in front of a large window as the centerpiece. The bedroom chandelier, carpet and wallpaper all give a woodland forest vibe while. The fireplace features a gorgeous herringbone tile surround and the built in reading nook is the sweetest place to spend an afternoon cozying up with your favorite book.

More than a place to cook, this kitchen was designed to support the rhythms of daily life. Thoughtful storage, generous work surfaces, and a calming palette of warm whites, natural wood, soft muted greens, and brass create a space that feels open, organized, and inviting. Flooded with natural light, the kitchen encourages gathering, conversation, and the simple pleasure of spending time together.

The property features a beautiful snug bathroom, with dark flooring and shower walls. The bathtub is shaped like a fine piece of modern art, deep and curvy. One can spend long hours drinking wine in this beautiful bathtub! The rich dark colouring of the washroom gives one a sense of peace and calmness, while cute orbs hang overhead casting off light.

A cozy mountain getaway turned into an Airbnb is the perfect place to spend time with the family.

An entry area to the home, this family laundry room became a catch-all for coats, bags and shoes. It also served as the laundry hub with a collection of portable drying racks, storage shelves and furniture that did not optimize the available space and layout. The new design made the most of the unique space and delivered an organized and attractive mud and laundry room with bench seating, hooks for hanging jackets and laundry needs, integrated wall drying racks, and lots of convenient storage.
