WHOLE HOUSE REMODELING PROJECTS
To Renovate or to Raze...
...Sometimes That is the Question
Two beautiful waterfront homes filled with happy memories: we found two couples in this fortunate situation, each considering a major overhaul for their Cape Cod property. <more>

Adding On Instead of Moving Out
Having your home under construction for up to a year or more can be stressful, but we found two homeowners who discovered that finding a contractor they trusted completely eases the process. <more>

A Beach House for the Generations
A cramped Eastham Cape gets a shingle-style makeover, but stays casual enough for sand on the floors. <more>

A Waterfront Gambrel Grows Up
A flexible attitude all around allows for a perfect ending. <more>

A New Slant for a Pondside Home
Mention “Cape Cod” and “water views” in the same breath, you’re probably talking about salt water.
<more>

Surfside Bungalow
Comes of Age: A tiny summer camp with incredible views becomes a comfortable year-round home. <more>

History on a Hill: The Besse House, an Orleans landmark, is restored. <more>

Shore Unique: A waterfront home in West Yarmouth is remodeled with an eclectic blend of styles, lines and textures. <more>

Contemporary Cape:
A complete remodel transforms a traditional
1980s Cape into a spacious, low-maintenance
home for today’s lifestyle. <more>

Respectful Remodel: From the street, this 19th-century sea captain’s house looks much the same today as it did when built 150 years ago. The Harwich Port cottage is a little less than 2,000 square feet. <more>

See Worthy: The renovation of a dilapidated
antique Cape marries cutting-edge
technology and old-fashioned ingenuity. When Tracy and Dan Foley first saw their Chatham summer home, it was just one big shell of old timbers divided by two floors and two-by-fours. <more>

Towering Success: Shaker design sense
and a rooftop tower turn a bland 1970s house into a home worthy
of heirloom status. The real estate ad read “"location,
location, location" and, indeed, a one-day, Open House
showing attracted six seriously interested buyers. <more>

Antique Revival: An 1850s Greek Revival in Chatham
gets a new lease on life with an
award-winning renovation that honors its past. The old house
hid its weathered face behind a tall evergreen tree, overgrown
bushes and tangled vines. <more>
SPECIALTY REMODELING PROJECTS

Barn Reborn: An unused Centerville outbuilding becomes a cozy in-law apartment with a view.<more>

New Addition: For this Sandwich family, an in-law apartment addition offers more opportunities than obstacles. <more>

Harding Store Historic Remodel: A former old village general store finally gets the respect it deserves. <more>

Outdoor Living: They’ve brought the outside in. Now homeowners want to bring the inside out with outdoor living spaces. <more>

The big screen comes to a home near you: The 73-inch, high-definition Mitsubishi television dominates the media room in this Harwich Port home, a wide-screen window to the world in Dolby-enhanced surround sound. <more>

A four-season sunroom lets you enjoy the outdoors year round:
Many homeowners are looking to bring the outdoors in – without bringing in the bugs and elements, too. <more>

Laundry- Out of the Closet: With the average family doing 8 to 10 loads per week,
laundering has earned a room of its own. The laundry room is fast becoming the next must-have room. <more>

Art and Artifice: A Cape Cod artisan continues
a craft steeped in tradition. At first glance, every
corner of the comfortably weathered guest wing of the historic
19th-century Cape Cod home in North Chatham speaks softly
but patently of age. <more>
