Rosecliff Exterior
These Southern clients were looking for a dramatic home with breathtaking views for their summer retreat. They found it in an old sea side cottage perched on a bluff that originated as a fishing "shack". Cobbled together over the years with a number of additions, the structure and facade needed a major overhaul.

Rosecliff Porch
Envisioning a lacy Gothic cottage inspired by mid-19th century houses of New England, the owners assembled their team and set about the transformation. What ensued is a peaceful and whimsical gingerbread style with lancet arches and trim.

Rosecliff Interior
The original fireplace was closed off and a new, centrally located one was constructed. The ornate, arched fireplace and surround, studded with local beach rocks, takes center stage in this cottage. The arches were reiterated in the built-in cabinetry.

Rosecliff Front Porch
Fragrant climbing roses frame the doorways and arches, while a cottage garden borders a fieldstone path, trimmed with fragrant thyme. There's a reason it's now called Rosecliffe.
