Barn Renovation
Barn Renovation
The original property once encompassed approximately 17.9 acres, extending from Clayton Road to Queeny Park. The estate featured a late-1950s residence, an equestrian barn, and a utility shed. Following a subdivision and platting process in 1984, the property was reduced to 2.02 acres but retained the original house, barn, and shed within what became the Chatsworth Place subdivision.
When we acquired the property, the barn remained structurally sound but was in need of extensive renovation and care. Its character and craftsmanship made it far too special to tear down. The centerpiece was the soaring 20-foot loft with exposed rafters and original plank siding.
Working closely with our clients, design team, and architects, we transformed the barn into a stunning pool house and entertaining space. The updated design introduced new dormers, James Hardie siding, metal roof accents, and a custom cupola topped with a galloping horse—an homage to its equestrian heritage.
Inside, the main floor now features an impressive walk-up bar with a mechanical EVO window for outdoor service, a full HVAC system, and a beautifully finished bathroom. The result is nothing short of spectacular—a perfect blend of history, craftsmanship, and modern comfort.
