The Quiet MooseWhen this historic Petoskey home began its life in 1895, its residents couldn't possibly have imagined its future transformation. Only 50 feet from the old train tracks, it started as an apartment building for railroad employees. Throughout the past century, it retained its roots as a multi-family dwelling, but had fallen into despair. In 2013, it was purchased for its great location, charming exterior and its spectacular view of the lake, and recruited J.Cesario Builders to remodel the structure into a single family home.
The vision would take almost two years to complete, as the original scope of the project evolved from a partial remodel into a total home transformation.

Gardner/Fox Associates, IncGardner/Fox earned the inaugural Radnor Township Historic Preservation Award for the historic restoration of this Horace Trumbauer designed Shingle Style Victorian. The architect developed a complete restoration and modernization plan for a circa 1893 massive stone and shingle home and used old photos supplied by the Radnor Historical Society to aid in the renovation. Construction included a new two-story addition and garage along with new heating and cooling systems and the restoration or historically accurate replacement of all interior and exterior finishes and fixtures. The home features expansive, modern and bright kitchens with open-air attached family areas. The result is a dramatic, classic yet modern Main Line home.
SV DesignOriginally designed by J. Merrill Brown in 1887, this Queen Anne style home sits proudly in Cambridge's Avon Hill Historic District. Past was blended with present in the restoration of this property to its original 19th century elegance. The design satisfied historical requirements with its attention to authentic detailsand materials; it also satisfied the wishes of the family who has been connected to the house through several generations.
