A Larger Cape Cod


This whole-house expansion turns what was once a bachelor pad into a family home. Architect Tom Ellison's design features a new addition that dramatically increases the home's square footage. The goal was to enlarge and update the home without losing the original Cape Cod character.

The cottage-style look is accented with multi-colored brick on the exterior and a cedar shingled roof. On the inside, there's a large new kitchen and eating area and a new family room. Another highlight is the new screened-in porch, where the homeowners can watch their children at play in a nearby park.
