Not every day do we encounter a home where all the elements seem to be in perfect harmony with each other and their surroundings.
Located in Shelter Island, NY and designed by Wettling Architects, this shingle-style beach cottage is luxurious for its location but it also features a casual interior where anyone can easily feel at home.
The natural materials such as reclaimed hardwood floors and ceiling beams make this neutral beach cottage feel warm and inviting while bright blue ocean views seem to bring the only touch of color this home needs.
Take a break from snow and dream about this sun-filled beach cottage.

I have to say that I have a good feeling when I look at this kitchen. It feels light, uncomplicated and clean. It’s a place where you want to cook and spend time at.

Mudroom
Every home should have a well-organized mudroom and this one gets an A+! Notice the beautiful custom cabinets and the horizontal tongue and groove walls.
