The challenge: take a run-of-the mill colonial-style house and turn it into a vibrant, Cape Cod beach home. The creative and resourceful crew at SV Design rose to the occasion and rethought the box. Given a coveted location and cherished ocean view on a challenging lot, SV’s architects looked for the best bang for the buck to expand where possible and open up the home inside and out. Windows were added to take advantage of views and outdoor spaces—also maximizing water-views were added in key locations. The result: a home that causes the neighbors to stop the new owners and express their appreciation for making such a stunning improvement. A home to accommodate everyone and many years of enjoyment to come.

This family of four had maxed out the existing space in their 1948 brick colonial. We designed and built a three-story addition along the back of the house, adding 380 square feet at each level. The family room has sliding doors to a new deck. This level also has a new powder room and mudroom to an existing side entry that previously opened to the original galley kitchen.

Natural light illuminates floor-to-ceiling slabs in the shower, the custom walnut vanity, and the rest of the en-suite oasis. • Primary Suite Renovation, 1928 Built Home Newton Centre, MA • 2020 CotY Gold Award Winner ‑ Residential Bath $60k+

Traditional hall bathroom with natural Calacatta marble countertop. Bun feet on the vanity bring in character to the bathroom. Traditional style faucet in polished nickel from Newport Brass and cabinetry hardware in polished nickel from Top knobs bring the glam to this bathroom. Beautiful 12x24 natural marble tile for the shower walls. Shower niche for ease of placement for showering products. Shower has linear drain so water slopes in one direction with the tile-in option so you can barely notice the drain.
