In looking for a vacation home in Vermont’s Green Mountains, these parents wanted plenty of space for their three kids to hang out and relax and for their family to gather with friends and relatives. They were aware they’d probably need to renovate whatever they found, so they brought in designer Milford Cushman to assess a few houses they felt had potential. They landed on this timber-frame home with spectacular mountain views of the Worcester Range.
The home had room for expansion in a large space over the garage and in the unfinished lower level. In addition, Cushman bumped out the footprint in a few key places. Other design priorities included bringing more light into the house and creating better connections to the outdoors. The finished home has a polished rustic look and is the perfect place for making lifelong memories.

Bathroom at a Glance
Who lives here: A couple and their three children
Location: Concord, New Hampshire
Size: 160 square feet (15 square meters)
Design-build firm: Granite State Cabinetry
Before: This New Hampshire bath, with the original finishes from 1999, had natural light but a dingy feel. The layout was clunky, with the vanity seen here, a linen closet on the right, a tub with a big tiled surround across from it, an unused fireplace in a bump-out on the right and, on the left side, a toilet closet and a shower. The homeowners wanted something more open, airier and with a makeup vanity, and they brought on kitchen and bath designer Whitney Nelson of Granite State Cabinetry for the makeover.
