Salten Point

Barnstable, MA

This new vacation home was designed to embrace the water views at the rear while blending with the neighborhood’s more traditional housing stock on the street-facing side.

Classic coastal retreat

Situated on a stunning piece of property overlooking the Black Bank Channel and Cape Cod Bay, the home was designed as a place for a young family to escape the city. Finishes and materials were selected to be practical, playful, and a classically New England beach town style. Classic gambrel roof forms, generous use of shiplap and traditional detailing are balanced with more contemporary built-ins, furniture, lighting, and fabrics.

Haven by the sea

Upstairs, the private spaces are organized around family living: the primary suite offers sweeping views of the backyard and ocean, while the children share a bunkhouse-style bedroom with built-in twin beds and a spacious shared bath.

Oceanfront living

The expansive pool deck links the main house to the backyard, a poolside lounge, and the guest suite above the garage. The private guest suite offers generous accommodations for visiting family and friends.
