IN PROGRESS

This two-story renovation in the Grove beautifully integrates with its natural riverside setting. Clad in locally sourced stone, the addition retains the house’s original character, including its signature blue roof. A large, covered entranceway leads to the main structure, blending seamlessly with tropical landscaping that wraps around the property, creating a sense of immersion in the surrounding greenery.

On the riverside, a two-story porch offers expansive views of the river and ocean beyond. Generous windows and sliding doors across both levels maximize natural light and invite breezes, fostering a strong indoor-outdoor connection. The wooden shutters and trim reflect the home’s vernacular style, while modern touches in the structure’s clean lines and balanced proportions create a harmonious blend of traditional and contemporary design.
