Aerie Point
Stone walls were added to create continuity between the buildings and the landscape while shoreline stabilization measures were taken to protect the property’s waterfront from erosion.
Preserving the integrity of multiple original structures required delicate handling of the building’s historical elements.
Aerie Point showcases Birdseye’s experience in both preservation and new construction—the transformation of an existing historic stone house and Greek Revival farmhouse into a private lakeside retreat.
The historic farmhouse, originally built in 1816, was carefully relocated and reconfigured to create two separate guest cottages. The existing carriage house was renovated to provide modern amenities while maintaining its classic look.
The project also introduced new structures, including a pool house, a restored English barn, a livestock barn, and an equipment storage shed. Each new addition was carefully designed and built to blend with the site’s historic architecture and natural surroundings. Extensive stone walls were added to unite the buildings with the landscape, while shoreline stabilization efforts preserved the integrity of the property’s waterfront.
Birdseye’s commitment to craft is showcased throughout the site, from custom cabinetry to careful site development.
