The home, which is located on waterfront property, sits atop cement columns as both a safety measure and to take advantage of the ocean views.

An outdoor shower just outside the primary suite is perfect for rinsing off after long, sandy days at the beach.

Modern Residence Great Room

This sensitively restore old mill keeper’s cottage on the bank of Norfolk’s River Ant has a new addition made from solid laminated wood that is a shadow of the original cottage.

Contemporary design meets 15th century Tudor charm in this magical holiday homes with diamond-pane windows, exposed oak wood beams and a modern frontage of glass and polished steel.

The addition’s two stories of cedar-framed sliding doors and window provide generous views of the house’s prized jacaranda tree. The addition’s polished concrete floor and white cladding extend into the garden, drawing occupants to the serene rear porch. There, they can relax on stools designed by Alvar Aalto and Charles Wilson while admiring the luscious greenery.

While the original home was dark, like other homes of its period, the addition allowed Andrews and his team to let in an abundance of natural light.
