While the front elevation of the existing house remains conventionally Colonial Revival, Johannas’s designs for the three new homes in Kensington Park are strikingly Modern, with subtle variations among the three elevations.

“For the new house on Park Avenue, we chose a lower profile that projects out to blend in with houses on the street,” Johannas said. “The third floor is set back, which has a tendency to soften it. And the bricks’ lighter and darker beige colors will help the house fit into the neighborhood.”

For the two houses on Kensington Avenue, Johannas designed homes with separate and distinct elevations.

“Reid wanted them to look like independent houses, rather than houses that matched,” Johannas said.

The new-construction houses will feature open floor plans and soaring spans of glass as well as cantilevered canopies over entryways and terraces.

All four houses will have roof gardens and attached, single-bay garages with EV charging stations for electric cars, and the three new-construction houses will have elevators.

“The attention to detail in these houses is going to be off the charts,” Small said.
