About This Project

The Barrington Farm House, originally built in 1888, stands as a testament to the architectural history of Barrington, RI. This 1-1/2 story clapboard cottage, exemplary of the region's Bracketed style, has faced the challenges of neglect over the years. However, rather than opting for demolition and a new build on the expansive lot, the dedicated owners chose to preserve the character and integrity of this unique home, ensuring its legacy continues within the community. The renovation primarily focused on interior alterations, allowing the farmhouse's exterior detailing to remain intact while making necessary modifications to meet modern codes and improve accessibility. In the bathroom, a serene and functional space was created, marrying contemporary design with the farmhouse's historic charm. High-quality materials were carefully selected to enhance the overall aesthetic while providing durability and ease of maintenance. The use of natural stone and reclaimed wood reflects a commitment to sustainability and authenticity, echoing the farmhouse's rustic roots. Custom cabinetry was crafted to maximize storage while complementing the original architecture, and vintage-inspired fixtures were integrated to maintain the period's character. Craftsmanship played a pivotal role in this transformation. Skilled artisans were engaged to ensure that every detail, from the intricate tile work to the period-appropriate moldings, was executed with precision and care. The result is a beautifully designed bathroom that offers a perfect blend of comfort and style, inviting relaxation while paying homage to the home’s history. The completed project not only revitalizes the Barrington Farm House but also reinforces the owners' commitment to stewardship of their property. By preserving the essence of this charming cottage, they have created a welcoming space that respects its past while embracing the needs of modern living. The Barrington Farm House now stands proudly, a symbol of resilience and thoughtful design, ready to welcome future generations.
