Summer Nights

Originally a sad & dilapidated 1953 two-bedroom ranch style house, it was the location, on the banks of Carter's Creek in the Northern Neck area of Virginia that attracted the Owners, a couple from DC.

They bagged & painted the external bricks, added a new cedar shake roof & enlarged the floor plan to include five bedrooms and five and a half bathrooms.

A black slate pool was added & then a pool house was built alongside complete with working fireplace. An iron lantern rigged with a pulley system that makes it simple to light the candles inside hangs over the table. The Owners say that it is the pool house & terrace area that's their favourite feature of this really delightful renovation.
