Quarter-sawn oak cabinets with a Stickley vibe are the anchor for this open, multi-zoned kitchen.
GLOUCESTER, MASSACHUSETTS, is on Cape Ann, a rocky land’s-end point northeast of Boston. Land’s end for Gloucester is Eastern Point, a narrow peninsula jutting into the Atlantic Ocean. Here, a small 1960s A-frame summer home stood on a unique spot, a quiet sanctuary overlooking Niles Pond and the ocean beyond. “I love this place,” says Barbara H. Bjornson, M.D., an on cologist with wide-ranging interests. “I bought the property in 1993, and always thought that I would build a house that would only enhance it.”
Dr. Bjornson says she has long been drawn to the classic American Arts & Crafts style. “Over the years, I had occasion to see such homes in various places. My interest evolved as I researched the period’s design history and its notable architects.” She had heard about Alan Battistelli, a local design/build contractor, from several friends and neighbors.“I met Alan and reviewed his proposal, and was instantly comfortable choosing him. He and his construction manager Scott Morrissey did excellent work, as the house attests.
