Heaven on the Harbor

In this case, Anita was called in early on to review a client’s initial plans to remodel a charming cottage in the heart of Marblehead Harbor—and she immediately sensed there was more there than met the eye. She saw opportunities, so with the client’s consent, she proposed a substantial space planning redirect. In order to maximize one of the most spectacular features of this property, the views of the ocean, they relocated the dining room. She knew the new master suite design needed tweaking; because interior space was limited, she devised a clever, functional solution to give the clients private bathrooms, by creating separate spaces that include a shared shower. Anita’s team assisted with the selection of interior finishes, colors and materials throughout the home. Several pieces of the client’s current furnishings were refinished and reupholstered, while other pieces were custom-designed and fabricated. They included everything from floor coverings, window treatments and lighting to artwork and accessories. The result is a charming home that reflects the homeowner’s style and personal possessions perfectly.
