East River Coastal Modern

Set against a dramatic waterfront backdrop, this award-winning custom residence blends bold contemporary architecture with warm, livable design. Every detail of this home was thoughtfully crafted to maximize natural light, capture sweeping ocean views, and create a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. Recipient of the 2026 Award for Most Outstanding New Home (Over 5,000 sq ft), this project represents the highest standard of craftsmanship, innovation, and design excellence.

Striking from every angle, the home showcases clean horizontal lines, expansive overhangs, and a refined combination of natural stone, wood, and modern cladding. Tiered levels and cantilevered decks add architectural depth while offering uninterrupted views of the surrounding landscape. Inside, bright, open living spaces are defined by soaring ceilings and walls of glass, anchored by a modern fireplace and designed for both everyday comfort and elevated entertaining.

The kitchen serves as both a functional workspace and a central design feature, complete with custom cabinetry, a waterfall island, and premium appliances. Warm wood tones balance the clean, contemporary lines, creating an inviting yet sophisticated atmosphere that flows effortlessly into the dining and outdoor areas. Throughout the home, carefully selected materials and a restrained palette establish a sense of calm, modern luxury.

The primary ensuite offers a spa-like retreat, featuring a freestanding soaking tub, an oversized walk-in shower, and expansive windows that bring in natural light and tranquil views. Thoughtful details—from the custom floating staircase with glass railing to curated lighting and integrated storage—contribute to a cohesive, timeless design. This home is more than a build; it is a statement of Chester Builders’ commitment to exceptional quality, innovation, and refined living.
