Coast Guard- a coastal home renovation in Eastham MA

Before our renovation, this unusual house near the ocean had a very relaxed and slightly overgrown charm.   We kept the existing masonry structure, converting all of the existing space to bedrooms, then added a new level of living space above it.

The bright and open living spaces capture views of the Atlantic, the nearby Coast Guard Station, and a tidal marsh. Interior detailing combines nautical and cottage elements, with beadboard cabinets and walls, mahogany and fir woodwork, jatoba flooring, and bulkhead lighting fixtures.

An entry porch with pipe and cable railings and mahogany decking welcomes visitors to climb aboard the house.   A large screened porch overlooking the marsh behind the house serves as a summer living room.
