This 1926 Tudor estate by George Earnest Robinson emulates the fine estates of Great Britain and features ashlar stone exterior walls interspersed with stucco and hand-hewn white oak timbers, rough slate roofing, copper downspouts and gutters, decorative clay chimney pots. >
Having been transferred to the next generation, this family home was in need of updates throughout. A reorganization of interior spaces has allowed for a more open plan suited to modern living. >
Now under construction, this custom barn will include garage storage on the lower level, as well as guest quarters, studio space and a home gym on the upper level, all overlooking the Great Marsh. >
This custom new build is situated to take advantage of a unique hillside site with significant granite ledge deposits. Substantial sitework was necessary to prepare for a foundation, as well as for a geothermal system. >
In collaboration with Brown Dog Properties, we designed this custom all-electric home to Passive Home standards. >
This custom home features a formal first floor, as well as primary and guest suites and children’s rooms with en suite baths for a growing family. >
Due to its historic location, this project has been subject to review by the Boston Redevelopment Authority, Historic Charlestown and the Boston Zoning Board of Appeals. >
An overarching goal was to achieve the lowest possible energy usage day to day. These homes reached very near Passive House standards for air exchange and followed The Pretty Good House standards. >
Red Barn partnered with Red Hammer Builders on a whole house renovation to modernize the home once more, returning to its origin as a single-family home. >
