Restoring Grandeur: Updating the Historic Cherry-Hallworth House
In the world of historic preservation, the line between "updating" and "erasing" is often thin. This is especially true on Providence’s East Side, where homes carry significant architectural lineage. Project Three Thirty, known historically as the Cherry-Hallworth House, presented a massive canvas: an 8,600-square-foot residence ready for a precise, respectful modernization.

The Balance of Old and New
The primary challenge was introducing modern luxury without stripping the home of its storied character. Our team focused on nuanced improvements that respected the original craftsmanship. We meticulously preserved the intricate judge’s paneling and traditional woodwork that defined the home’s era, ensuring that every new intervention felt like a natural evolution of the original 1931 design rather than a stark contrast.
Redefining the Heart of the Home
While the historic details remained, the functionality needed a major overhaul for contemporary living. The centerpiece of this renovation was a complete redesign of the kitchen, repositioning it as the true heart of the home. We introduced luxurious marble finishes and high-end updates that complemented the historic shell, proving that a home can be both historically significant and thoroughly modern.
Efficiency in Preservation
Perhaps most remarkably, this comprehensive transformation was delivered in just six months. By managing the design and construction as a single integrated team , we executed complex preservation work and luxury installation simultaneously, returning this grand estate to its owners in record time.
