HA 60 | Sag Harbor
In the heart of Sag Harbor's historic charm, we took on a unique project: transforming a teardown while preserving a piece of its original structure. This renovation wasn't just about adding new spaces; it was about respecting the past and embracing the future. To the rear, we expanded the home, adding square footage that seamlessly transitions into a new, stylish pool cabana. This addition not only extended the living space but also enhanced the backyard and swimming pool area, making it a perfect spot for relaxation and entertainment.
The home's design strikes a balance between simplicity and elegance. The semi-custom kitchen serves as a focal point, blending functionality with style. Traditional details and fine millwork throughout the home pay homage to its historical roots while infusing a sense of modern sophistication. This Sag Harbor residence stands as a testament to thoughtful design, where the old and new coexist in harmony.
"We had been renting here in the area for a few years, and when a quaint little cottage came on the market, we purchased it right away. The existing cottage was historic and small. We had to respect the local rules to restore the existing 600 sq ft home while adding additional square footage at the same time. BuildLabs had completed projects like this prior to ours where the existing cottage had to be lifted and a new foundation and basement were poured prior to restoring and adding to the existing cottage. From the permit set, BuildLabs was able to take the project all the way to completion.
The quaint cottage still has its character, and the proximity to the village of Sag Harbor is perfect. We also love the open floor plan and how the entertainment area spills into the pool area and pool house. Every detail is meticulously executed.
We couldn’t be happier with BuildLabs’ work! The team was proactive in finding the best technical solutions that were in line with our budget. Transparent, clear goals, and an empirical approach best describes our experience with BuildLabs. We cannot recommend them enough, and if we are ever in the market to build another new home, they will be our choice again!"
