The original Greek Revival house was built in 1833 and the modernist addition was built in 1936 to accommodate a private art collection. Our clients, art professionals themselves, purchased the house after relocating to Connecticut in 2016. This 5,600-square-foot renovation specifically focused on upgrading the kitchen, bathrooms, and mechanical systems. The design elements in this historic home complement the passions of its owners, providing an eclectic backdrop to display their much-cherished art collection. Taking a regional approach, we sourced furnishings from Western Connecticut and the Hudson Valley, which were mingled with the family’s heirlooms.
What a beautiful home with such history! It’s almost 200 years old but with the sensitive modernization of it along with the eclectic blend of furnishings and art, it works so well in present day. Designed by Hendricks Churchill. Photos: Chris Mottalini.
