Featured in the Provincetown’s Pilgrim Monument Historic House Tour, September 2008.

Parker Construction converted this multi-family home into a single family artist’s cottage. The historic colonial exterior was preserved, while the interior underwent a complete renovation into a modern, open space. Extraordinary millwork, stunning tile, and precious stones feature throughout the entire cottage. Exotic woods, such as Australian cypress were used, as well as recycled materials such as harvested antique old growth oak for the flooring.

To accommodate the client’s request for an open floor plan, Parker Construction installed a steel skeleton which was designed to meet building and structural requirements. A formidable challenge was integrating the historical exterior with the modern interior infrastructure while maintaining code compliance and the historical integrity of the home.
