Summary
↘
Having just completed renovation at the beginning of 2014, this Shelter Island cottage is as practical as it is inviting. This modern remodel started with an all new shingled roof, punctuated by interior spatial reconfigurations, and ended with a remarkable amount of custom work.
Custom glass banister, floors, counters, cabinets, spiral staircases, bathroom tiling, are all signatures of Reich/Eklund’s building style. The one-of-a-kind design, inside & out, reify that life on Shelter Island is what you build out of it.
The incomparable water view spanning across Wades Beach is a hallmark of living on Shelter Island. The water surrounding Shelter Island is community, is the source from which all else flows.
