Classic Georgian Revived Home Tour

Meet our ‘Classic Georgian Revived’ project- a recently completed home renovation in Greenwich, CT. From the updated backyard entertaining space and mudroom, to the new His and Her master bathroom and closet, the style is traditional but fresh to suit our clients’ classic Georgian brick home.

A spacious outdoor patio features a large brick fireplace with a roaring fire. Surrounding it are wicker couches with blue cushions, arranged in a U-shape. Wooden pergolas with white columns frame the area. The patio is set in a lush, green forested area with trees and plants.

The renovation included an expansion of the backyard entertaining space, creating a larger patio with an improved connection to the existing recreation space via new wide arched French doors. The new curved brick fireplace with bluestone bench and painted wood pergola help define the space. Speakers and landscape lighting are built into the new masonry.

A spacious outdoor patio features a U-shaped wicker sofa with blue cushions and patterned pillows around a small table with drinks. A red brick house, lush greenery, and flowering trees surround the area. A white pergola with a built-in grill is on the right, and steps lead up the hill.

Pre-renovation, the home’s mudroom was an empty space used only for a pass through to the backyard and entrance to the garage and guest suite above. By adding all new cabinetry, lighting, heating/air conditioning and plumbing, it has become a useful room for dog crating, potting plants and storage.

A hallway with light blue cabinetry and a wood-paneled ceiling leads to open double doors. A striped blue rug covers the brick floor, where a small black dog lies at the center. Outside, lush greenery is visible through the doorway, creating a serene atmosphere.
Kitchen area with mint green cabinets and a dark marble sink. Above the sink are three shelves displaying various potted plants. The backsplash is a textured dark stone. A red brick wall with an arch is partially visible to the left, and a wooden ceiling is overhead.

Our clients also wanted the luxury of separate His and Her bathrooms. To help make that happen, our team dove into the design to reconfigure the master suite and create separate bath spaces. A small extra bedroom was absorbed and re-planned to accommodate new His and Her baths along with generous custom closets.

Elegant bathroom with a dark wood vanity featuring two mirrors, each flanked by vertical sconces. The countertop is dark with a subtle pattern, and silver handles accent the cabinet doors and drawers. A large circular chandelier is reflected above. The room is well-lit with natural light.

Pictured above is the custom vanity for His bath, featuring rift-sawn white oak body stained in an ebony finish with Pietra Grey marble top. Both new baths feature luxurious upgrades, including radiant heat under the tile floor, steam showers, and hidden automated roll shades over the existing windows and balcony doors.

Pictured above is the new tranquil, watery blue Her bath. It features a custom vanity that stands on turned wooden feet, basket-weave thassos marble floor, and a freestanding tub centered in a window alcove. Next to the marble tiled shower is a custom make-up station that features an adjustable mirror and a table with divided drawers for peak organization. After washing up, one can cross the hall to the custom closets with LED surround lighting and divided drawers to complete an unparalleled morning routine.
