Welcome to our Andell Bluff project, located along Bohicket Creek on Johns Island. This is one of our favorite projects to date, and we’re so thankful for our client, who trusted us to bring this special property to life amid 12 bucolic acres.
Pick up the September issue of to take a tour. Here’s an excerpt of the article, written by :
“The plan was to incorporate the existing, circa-1838 farmhouse that had belonged to generations of the Andell family, who once owned a sizable chunk of John’s Island. However, the house had been moved at some point in the 1960s and renovated several times, so only some of the original framing remained. After extensive research and consultation with general contractor Phillip Smith, it was determined that the entire foundation would need to be replaced and the home reframed—efforts that didn’t add up for the project. Instead, McDonald and Phillip Smith builder Bill Payzant channeled their energies into “paying homage to the old farmhouse and other regional, rural vernacular structures,” says McDonald.”
