This neo-colonial home has a long personal connection in that it was the first home that I had worked on as a young intern architect. Our most recent project was the addition of a screened porch to the rear of the home. The space links a mudroom entry with a new deck from the family room. The interior is appointed with a beaded ceiling and an open plan looking over an expansive rear yard. To extend the seasonal use of the space we included removable storm panels that enclose the porch giving an additional month or two of use.
