Yes, they were taken after the house was renovated by Mr. Sciame. Dead giveaways are the small patio with four columns in the center of the back of the house (the back of the house faces Long Island Sound) as shown in two of the photos. Plus the porch on the right side of the house is also an addition.
There were a number of other architectural changes both inside and outside.
BUT -- the house is still beautiful. The Hepburns built on the primest piece of real estate in an area of prime real estate. Views are spectacular as is the setting for the house.

As one goes through life, one learns that if you don't paddle your own canoe, you don't move!

Wow the house looks wonderful. I often wonder what Kate would of thought. Somehow I don't think it's her style, outside and in but I think she would be happy that it is giving another family such happiness.

Where did you find that photo?

Thanks for replying with the mag date dreamer.
I thought of taking pics with my digital and seeing if I could post them but I always get a huge light flash in the middle of the pictures.

ah - that is too bad

Please try anyway - maybe taken a bit from the side

Mr. Schaime, he was a friend of Kates. He was going to sell after renovating but decided to keep it. I sure understand why!

I sure would like to see what Mr. Schaime has done with the inside. Is the trim blue or are those shadows on the house?

You can see what he did on the inside in Oct. issue of Town and Country a yr. back.

You can probably get a back issue at a library.

It really is a diff. house inside. The only thing I recognized was the LR fireplace. Everything else is like a beachhouse, all white and roomy.

Walls were knocked down, rooms changed, etc.

I guess some Hepburn relatives came by a few yrs. ago and just loved it.

Best of all he raised the house so no more flooding.

Judy: All has changed on the Proboard....Not sure my reply got posted. Anyway, thanks for the notice, Evelien. I'm unable to access it. I can watch the clip of the woman flipping through the Kate books and talking about fashion - one of which is Rebel Chic :-) Feb 4, 2014 20:29:21 GMT -5
