Reinterpreting a classic in Beverly Crest
The Feldman house, designed by modernist Gregory Ain for his psychiatrist in 1953, was among the last major works of an architect known for his modest yet singular style. These days, the Beverly Crest estate sports a larger look, thanks to a renovation and expansion that blended classic bones with modern comforts.
Midcentury staple walls of glass join indoor and outdoor living areas, while a master suite acts as a home within a home with a floating fireplace, inner courtyard and executive kitchen. New accent lighting creates visual interest across the wooded grounds.
