This two-story addition was designed to expand the home’s footprint while introducing a new level of interior refinement. On the main level, we integrated a dedicated home office and a highly functional mudroom to streamline the transition from the new front porch to the living spaces. Above, the vertical expansion houses a primary suite centered on a spa-inspired bathroom featuring a deep soaking tub, arched mirrors, and custom tile work.The rear of the home opens to a tiered outdoor living space, where a new deck and a custom screened-in back porch sit directly within the natural canopy of Long Branch Park. By balancing the home’s original brick character with these modern volumes, the project creates a residence that is equally focused on private retreat and outward connection.
