Jones Residence

Waccabuc, NY

The Jones family purchased this beautiful property with a small house that was built in the 1970’s. The house had considerable mold and needed up- grades to its services.

The traditional cape house style had a steeply sloped roof without dormers on the north face. This resulted in an opportunity to recapture one third of the upstairs SF as usable.

The downstairs plan also had challenges. In the family room / kitchen, a stair to the basement and a large fireplace with flue bifurcated the ground floor resulting in several cramped spaces that were isolated from each other.

Our clients’ goals were to increase the usable area without adding more footprint to the foundation and to use current technology for cleaner more energy efficient systems.
