This historic Federal-style estate in Bernardsville, New Jersey, originally built in 1920, underwent an extensive whole-house renovation and expansion. The project transformed the original 1,400-square-foot residence with 5,000 square feet of new space, a complete interior renovation, a new attic, and custom pool house, preserving its historic character while introducing modern amenities.
The residential addition includes a luxurious master suite, additional bedrooms, an in-law suite, family room, adult game room, mudroom, four-car garage, finished basement, and wine cellar. Exterior details include hand-split wood shake roofing, copper flashing and gutters, natural stonework, and carriage-style wood garage doors.
A newly constructed 1,400-square-foot custom pool house features guest quarters, a full kitchen, exposed timber trusses, and French doors. White columns on stone piers frame covered entertaining areas with a natural stone fireplace and outdoor kitchen featuring a stainless steel grill.
