The last time we saw this East Hampton English Cottage, it was just beginning to reveal itself. Quaint stucco exteriors and large Tudor style brick fireplaces were major hints. Several months later this wonderful cottage reveals more of it’s secrets as it moves swiftly toward completion. The exterior is close to finished, including the pool and landscaping. The interior is well enough along to see something wonderful is coming. This new design direction from Yankee Barn Homes looks very promising, indeed!
The East Hampton English Cottage Exterior
A walk around the exterior of the house shows a great deal has progressed since the last time we saw this Yankee Barn post and beam two months ago.
- The driveway entrance is one of the few exterior areas yet to be finished.
- The one car garage sits below a guest room with large French doors.
- On the back of the house sits one of two Tudor style fireplaces.
- Two large sets of French doors balance the “weight” of the Tudor fireplace.
The East Hampton English Cottage Interior and Floor Plans
The interior of the cottage is where you’ll see major advancement since we last saw this home. Walls are finished, fireplaces are complete, the Tudor kitchen is being installed and all baths have been totally installed. Beginning with the floor plans as a reminder of the layout, we’ll then see the individual rooms as they exist today.
- The only lofted space on the first floor is the family room ell of the post and beam home.
- The post and beam cathedral ceiling above the fireplace.
- Crown Point cabinets begin to be installed in the post and beam kitchen.
- Stairway to the second floor with Crown Point Cabinetry in the background.
- Built-in closet in the master bedroom. Every room upstairs has a lofted post and beam ceiling.
- The master bedroom and one of the guest rooms each have a set of French doors which open onto a small balcony.
- Each of the three upstairs bedrooms have their own beautifully appointed bath.
A Full Basement
The basement of this home is not just any old basement. Finished with guest bedrooms, living space, its own laundry facilities and entryway, it may be used as a totally separate space from the main house above. Natural light and coffered ceiling are just two of it’s many unique features.
- Though covered at this point, all the floors on this level are Travertine tiles.
- The lower level’s exterior entrance steps into a combination mud and laundry room.
This YBH English Cottage is due to be completed and photographed by the end of the summer. Please check back as I’ll post updates as the season progresses.
