South Salem Farmhouse

Our South Salem house is located on a large piece of land abutting preserved wetlands in Northern Westchester County, about 50 miles north of New York City. Originally built as a one-room cabin in 1725 and added to over the years, we reconsidered the site plan and overall organization by locating a pool beside an existing barn, rebuilding rooflines, and adding a new light-filled kitchen.

Our interventions carefully preserved historical features—including 200-year-old wood beams and a sleeping porch turned shower room—while contrasting them with modern finishes, furnishings, and amenities. The house is now filled with warm colors and rich wood floors, transformed into a comfortable family estate.
