Tuxedo Park Crow’s Nest was once an abandoned ruin, rotting from a poorly designed roof and unrealized as a site. The renovation reoriented the house around its commanding elevated location and sturdy timber frame, opening the main level by removing a constraining column to connect the living, dining, and kitchen areas. The original dark entry was relocated to the center on a new front-facing gable with deep protective overhangs, and the interior stair was realigned with the new east-facing foyer. A screened porch with a fireplace and dining area extends the living space outdoors.

Upstairs, the master bedroom features a cedar cathedral ceiling and fireplace alcove, with balconies off both the master and guest rooms finished with an alpine-influenced cedar balustrade. Moroccan tiles distinguish the kitchen, and the heavy timber frame was refinished and exposed throughout. The walkout basement accommodates playrooms, a wine cellar, and bedrooms for extended family.
