This Gambrel-style summer home in Lawrence, New York, is currently undergoing a thoughtful renovation that preserves its historic character while expanding its functionality. The ten-bedroom residence retains its original left-side wing, now being enhanced with a dramatic new skylight that brings natural light into the interiors. On the right, a new extension is taking shape with additional bedrooms and an outdoor kitchen and dining area below, anchored by an outdoor fireplace to create a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. The project also includes the construction of a new guest house, designed to complement the main home while offering its own unique features. Defined by a curtain wall of windows opening to the pool, the guest house is being built to bring natural light into the living area. A secondary room at the rear, paired with a convenient kitchenette, adds versatility, while the layout is planned to balance comfort and privacy. Together, these updates are transforming the property into a summer retreat that blends traditional architectural character with modern amenities.
