1980s MONTAUK CAPE RENOVATION
What started as a bathroom renovation evolved into a full remodel of a 1980s Montauk Cape. The home, perched atop a kettle hole, had limited outdoor space and hidden rodent damage in the second-floor electrical. We removed the ceiling to open up the space and create a modern layout.
The kitchen was refreshed with new doors, marble countertops, updated hardware, recessed lighting, and a skylight upgrade. We added custom IKEA built-ins in the primary bedroom and reworked all bathrooms for a cohesive look. The basement became a bright, livable space with refinished floors, cable railings, and a custom staircase.
Exterior upgrades included a reconfigured driveway, new IPE porch, reinforced deck, and integrated outdoor shower—resulting in a beautifully modernized home.
