old english charm
This English-style stone and stucco Homeland house had plenty of charm but lacked comfort. The addition is a perfect blend of old English charm with modern functionality.
order and grace
A model of stately reserve on the outside, the inside of this house with its confusing maze of spaces was anything but. By applying function to the layout of spaces and graciousness to the design of the rooms, this house was transformed from chaos to order.
past's present counterpart
While charming, this historic mill house with its three separate wings, constructed during three different times, and each having three different floor levels did not accommodate the family.
Updating History
Truly The Homeland House, this historical touch point for the neighborhood eventually was no longer in-sync with the needs of more modern-day lifestyles. Thornhill Design Studio was able to enhance the livability of this Homeland original and to ensure its viability for generations to come.
MODERN MAKEOVER
The existing house was built in 1963 as a mid-century modern with the goals of simplicity and connection to nature. But simple can get complicated when you have a growing family. Thornhill proves with this project that function and good design can only be enhanced when the outdoors influences the indoors.

This Homeland landmark is a classic stone and stucco English cottage style house originally designed by Palmer, Willis & Lamdin. While exhibiting an abundance of charm and style, it lacked some of the functional spaces that a modern family requires.
