“Renshaw has cleverly opened the old kitchen, added new informal living space, and improved the appearance of the north end of the home…”
“So well executed are Renshaw’s fresh additions, though, that none are clamoring for attention at the expense of the others. It’s a lovely picture now made even lovelier by being refreshingly up to date.”

“We think we hear the sea. Renshaw’s well-orchestrated renovation of a Weekapaug house has doubled this historic cottage’s shorefront ambiance.”
“Dramatic inside and out, this made over Victorian makes us all want to come home.”

“A circa 1900 seaside retreat with Victorian roots is restored to its former glory and the spirit of the past…”
“Now restored, the Rhode Island residence shines with renewed elegance.”

“A dramatic renovation….has rendered this better-than-new home glorious. Still, the top used space has to be this dual mudroom/laundry set beside the front entry. With a bonanza of custom storage, honed granite counters and a farm sink that allows fussing with flowers or dog washing, the space handles whatever comes along with poise.”

“When the design process first began, Providence architect Clifford Renshaw tells us that creating a large porch for this Watch Hill house was a top priority.”
“Cunningly, he slid the generous sixteen-foot-wide-by-forty-two-foot-long room along the level of the main house above the walk-out basement (read: guest quarters)…Pretty and practical, this is the consummate family porch friends get to enjoy, too.”

“The owners “needed to bring the gracious house up to speed for use as a summer haven, so interior designer Ludi Goodenburger and architect Clifford Renshaw went to town with a total revamp.”
“…the welcoming kitchen is at the heart of all of it. From lustrous palette to luscious materials, it’s the kind of consummate hub (note the inviting sitting area) good cooks in grand homes warrant.”

“Are these really the same house? Architect Clifford Renshaw took a simple ranch… and with a gambrel-roofed second story to contain new bedrooms, transformed it to a brand new home…”
“The other house is just a memory: the tiny seed that sprouted enough rooms to harbor them all- beautifully.”
