The
main challenge in this project was to expand and reconfigure the second
floor living space of the house, while preserving the charm of a cape
cod and maintaining a scale similar to others in the neighborhood. A
secondary challenge was that no expansion could occur beyond the front
wall plane or above the existing roof ridge. The small hip accents on
both gable ends were removed and a “salt box” style reverse gable was
added over the front door. This improved the roof lines and curb appeal.
The additional space gained, along with a second floor dormer, was
extensive, but the new construction does not exceed the height of the
existing structure. This helped to maintain the scale of the home and
meet the height requirements. The project utilized elements found in
many cape cods, including accents of shake siding mixed with lap siding,
a bold strong color, and the appearance of a one story structure.
