Project Summary (In Process):
What began as a modest masonry house without modern reinforcement has been almost entirely reimagined. Deconstruction made way for a complete rebuild, transforming the property into a high-performance sanctuary designed for longevity and comfort.
Triple-pane windows, continuous insulation, meticulous air-sealing, and a highly efficient heat recovery ventilation system will ensure the home performs beautifully in every season. A standing-seam metal roof and lap siding over a vented rain screen will provide durability and timeless character, while interiors are being thoughtfully curated by the Sill Design team.
For our clients, this home is more than an architectural upgrade—it’s retirement peace of mind chosen for its proximity to children and grandchildren and crafted to sustain family gatherings for as long as the house remains in the family.
