Michael McCann Westchester architect Fairfield architect profiled in East Coast Home + Design




East Coast Home + Design requested that Michael McCann, architect practicing in Westchester, Fairfield, NYC and the Hamptons submit a project for the amazing transformation issue, which just got published. The magazine, which features beautiful residential properties which underwent significant changes, can be viewed on line by searching East Coast Home + Design magazine.

Michael's project was a Costwold style home in Pocantico Hills, Mt. Pleasant, New York which had once been a caretake's cottage. The bent wood roof (done by Pana, Inc.) on the major addition was seamlessly blended to the original house. The addition included a new kitchen, family room and master bedroom suite and you can't tell where the original house ended and the new part begins. Stone work was meticulously matched to the original.

New York architect Michael McCann AIA New York City Duplex


Upper east side duplex was created from several apartments. The last apartment added was the lower three room residence. The entire area on the upper floor was gutted to the walls, with not interior walls left standing except one interior bathroom. The result was a stunning space including a master bedroom with bath, 2 other baths (one off the kitchen), a huge kitchen with four windows, a gas fireplace and a walk in pantry. The duplex now boasts a formal dining room with sitting for 12, a spacious living room with inglenook and gas fireplace. Also, the main floor has 2 offices (his and hers) and large den/family room with stairway leading to lower level. Lower level includes 2 bedrooms, living room and small kitchen. Lower level also has laundry room and separate entrance for use by adult children.
