New York City Renovation
One of our longest and most complex projects was the complete renovation of a 200,000-square-foot, partially occupied residential building in Brooklyn, New York. The work required careful coordination around residents while we renovated occupied and vacant apartments, upgraded the building's electrical, plumbing, heating, and cooling systems, and expanded elevator service to two additional floors. The project also included removing obsolete elevator shafts and boiler flues to create additional usable space, building new lobby and amenity areas, replacing every window, and completing extensive repairs to the building's facade.
Country Estate, Yorktown NY
A complete gut renovation transformed this classic Westchester County farmhouse, set on 35 acres of pristine farmland, into a more modern and functional home while preserving its original character. The interior was structurally reworked to remove several load-bearing walls and create an open floor plan, while the exterior retained the charm of the original farmhouse. To create a seamless connection between the living space and a new pool area, we addressed the sloped rear yard with a substantial retaining wall, allowing us to level the site and build an expansive pool deck designed with future outdoor kitchen space in mind.
Quaint Ski House, Stratton Mountain Vermont
When our client had the opportunity to purchase a home near their favorite Vermont ski area, they were concerned about its as-is condition and structural integrity. Before the purchase, Westchester Heritage Builders evaluated the property alongside our structural engineer and determined that the issues could be addressed without making the project cost-prohibitive. The client moved forward, and within six months we completed a full gut renovation, reworking the compact floor plan to maximize space for entertaining and create a comfortable three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath weekend retreat.
Modern New Construction
Another Stratton, Vermont project began with a vacant parcel of land and a client's vision for a sleek, modern mountain home — including a flat roof. Working with our structural engineer, we designed the roof to withstand substantial snow loads while creating an open-concept home with a distinctly contemporary feel. Ten-foot floor-to-ceiling windows, oversized sliding doors to the outdoor living areas, and a freestanding steel-and-glass staircase give the home a dramatic modern aesthetic, balanced by the practical essentials of a ski retreat: generous equipment storage, a spacious mudroom, and a Jacuzzi just off the living area for the perfect après-ski soak.
