Backyard Barn Conversion With Cozy Cottage Style in Cambridge, MA
From:
SWZ Architects
This once-woeful storage space shared a lot with its owner’s full-time, circa-1846 home. When she got ready to downsize, it was high time to rehab and convert it to a retirement dream house. The clever renovation and restoration preserved original details like timber posts and knee braces, antique floorboards and interior beadboard siding, then added industrial steel cables, modern conveniences and laid-back style.
