Inspired Modern Living
This waterfront residence is located on the Great Neck Peninsula, facing west to views of New York City and the borough bridges. The lot size and shape
along with strict zoning regulations were key factors in its design. The front façade of the home was designed as a privacy screen. Due to strict height
requirements, the house from the street appears to be one story. But it actually steps down the hill to allow for three fully occupiable floors.
The home's U-shape configuration surrounds a rear courtyard; this shape, along with suspended pods, assures water views for all occupants while not
compromising on privacy. The lower level includes decks, an outdoor kitchen, and pool, all of which are perched on the edge of an upper retaining wall. All
roofs are accessible as either decks or landscaped garden areas.
