S + H first worked on this house on Avon Hill in Cambridge in 1996, when we added many exterior details to what was then a plain facade. Built-in copper lined gutters, new siding, red cedar trim including eaves, quoins, transition bands, and water tables were added, as well as a new front entry addition. Various other work continued over the next few years, including the conversion of the basement into a family room. In 2005, we began a complete renovation of the interior of the house, which included all new systems, fully integrated "smart house" technology, in-floor radiant heat, and high-velocity air conditioning. Serpentine walls, curved staircases, interior and exterior waterfalls, etched glass, and a large wine cellar and presentation room are a few of this home's many significant features. Interestingly, there is very little interior trim work - for instance, there are no baseboards, the plaster goes right to the floor. This project was completed in eight months.

This project was recently highlighted in the Boston Globe - read about it here.
