Classical Revival Influenced Shingle Style Beach House

The front façade of this Cape Cod home in Chatham, Massachusetts features a gently curving roof that rises like a perfectly formed wave. The architecture combines coastal Shingle Style with Classical Revival details.

There is a playfulness to the shape of the house designed by Polhemus Savery DaSilva Architects Builders. A whimsical weather vane sits atop the curving roofline. The casual elegant interior designed by SLC Interiors features blue tones inspired by the coastal setting.

The house is situated above the sandy banks of a salt pond. The floor plan is organized around the water view. Most of the rooms and all of the main living spaces face the pond.

Upstair bedrooms have tall arched windows that rise into the the dormers, with smaller porthole windows acting as exterior accents.

The house plan maximizes outdoor living spaces, including a covered veranda overlooking the water, sun and fireplace terraces, and a cozy balcony on the side of the house offering an intimate spot for relaxation.
