A New House That Surprisingly Looks Like It’s Centuries Old

Nestled in an idyllic neighborhood yet brimming with old-world charm, this new house by Period Architecture Ltd. defies expectations by looking like it’s been standing for centuries. From weathered stone facades and hand-hewn wooden beams, every aspect of the design feels like a page from history.

Painted paneling and a mix of brick and wood-planked floors create a historic, warm vibe inside the beautiful and cozy stone house. You’d never know this was brand new construction.

The kitchen reveals the same mustard-colored paneling and wood beamed ceiling as the entryway. A rustic beam serves as a shelf above the stove. Dark gray sleek counter tops lend an air of sophistication.

Raised paneled cabinets feature dark bronze hardware and the upper cabinets show custom cutouts that add personality to the historic-looking kitchen.

The red-hued kitchen island is a one-of-a-kind creation that takes center stage in the large kitchen with gleaming wood floors and a partial stone wall.

Keeping rooms in Early American homes had fireplaces where dinner was cooked and served. Today’s new house embraces the same concept with a stone-walled fireplace that features hanging iron pots. Black Windsor chairs cozy up to the vintage wood dining table.

The formal dining room features raised paneling and wallpaper with a marble-surround fireplace. A beautiful Oriental rug grounds the room and echoes the burgundy color of the upholstered end chairs.

The living room is painted in the same warm mustard color seen throughout the new house. Exquisite architectural details are found in every square inch, as seen in the mullioned windows, built-in shelves, deep-set windows, and more.

A third fireplace features more of the home’s amazing custom mill work. Lucky is the person who lives in a home with such exquisite detailing.

It’s no surprise that the main staircase is a stunning beauty.

A beautiful hallway shows a peek of that elaborate staircase at the end of the hall. I love the arched doorways at either end of the hall.
