Rocky Neck Harbor Retreat
This property is located right in the heart of the Rocky Neck Art Colony in Gloucester, MA. There was a large vacant home on the property with a lot of overgrown vegetation. We tore the existing home down and blasted ledge to allow for a finished basement area. It was a double lot so there was a large area of land below the new house that sloped down to the harbor and street below. It was a challenge to work on the steep slope.
Rocky Neck is a small community with houses right on top of each other, being that it is a small area of land in the harbor. This is a 3,500 sqft home, Tree House Design did a great job designing the home to fit into the hillside so you would never think the home is as large as it is.
The plans for this home did not come with interior elevations, just floor plans. Jason worked with the clients designing the interior finishes and details. The results are breathtaking. This house has a great feel when walking through it. This is a home we are proud to put our name on.

Jason was as fussy as we were about details and quality. Along the way we had to make fairly significant changes to our plan; Jason’s innate design sense and good taste resulted in sensible and beautiful modifications.
