Smooth Sailing
Just a quick jaunt from the beach and a harbor dotted with lobster boats in Manchester-by-the-Sea, Massachusetts, sits an
elegant, shingled home on two private acres. With its rounded turret, blue-painted shutters, and simple boxwood-and-lavender
garden, the house has all the charm of a cozy Colonial cottage in a small town.
But after 15 years, the owners, a family of six Connecticut, decided the house needed some updating. Installing a new kitchen
and stairwell turned into a full-blown renovation and addition—including a new family room, master suite, and pool—by Essex,
Massachusetts--based architect Robert MacNeille. Then the family turned to Rowayton, Connecticut-based interior designer Lynn
Morgan to infuse their home with a style that would reflect the seaside setting.
