This Federal-style home and carriage house were co-designed and built by Sacred Oak Homes, transforming a simple 1970s house into an elegant estate. We separated and lifted the original structure from the foundation to create fourteen-foot ceilings on the first floor, added wings to all four sides and all new systems and finishes throughout. The carriage house, built from the ground up, features antique beams, cathedral ceilings, and a custom-built cupola. Photo by Noni MacLeay
