Creating the Monticello look means bringing together historic home design and traditional colors to capture the beauty and grace of early American living in nearly any style home. The owners of this home selected a Monticello palette to restore the elegance of their home, originally built in 1916. We added a round picture window with decorative grids and keystone trim accents to add visual interest and historic detail. We replaced the somewhat unbalanced entryway with a colonial-style decorative overhang that features Beaded siding , classic white pillars and a new porch railing.
New dormers draw the eye upward and help to create a classic colonial-looking home.
Beaded siding, decorative dentil molding and a new roof complete the picture. We added a decorative portico at the side of the house, near the chimney.
