Major Renovation, Eastham, MA

Architect Peter McDonald and Cape Associates collaborated on this major renovation in Eastham. The photos show a home that opens toward the water, with a screened room, a deck and grounds that step down to the shore.

Inside, a vaulted ceiling with a cedar-shingled gable end rises above a ring of windows. The kitchen has white cabinets and a wood-topped island with a blue base. In the living room, navy sofas face a brick fireplace.

• Cedar shingle siding with a red-painted front door
• White railed deck overlooking the water
• Raised timber garden beds and a gravel path with a rope railing

The planting and the path show how the landscape was handled with the house. Beyond the house, the beds are framed in weathered timber and the gravel path is edged with rope on posts, which gives the walkway down to the water a clear line.
