Located in Rye, a coastal suburb in Westchester County, Guion Road House was built in 1897 in the Dutch Colonial Revival style.
WAU were tasked with the renovation of the historic building to accommodate the needs of a new owner. Areas of scope included a new kitchen/living area and master bedroom suite as well as the addition of an exterior deck and screened porch.
A sense of privacy from neighbors was a primary request from the new owners. With this in mind WAU designed a rear terrace to reorient the focus away from the adjacent property and onto the expansive rear garden. Further emphasizing privacy, the screen porch that directly faced the neighboring house was enclosed and converted into a family room and study. The newly designed terrace and screen porch gave outdoor access from the second floor of the house.
