Meg Erickson and Marie McInnes
found they had an affinity for
rescuing carriage houses, they came to the right neigh-
borhood. It just so happens that the North Shore has an
abundance of old stables and carriage houses begging to
be restored. The duo was just winding up their second
carriage house project (which Erickson ended up adopt-
ing as her own home) when Erickson stumbled upon a
particularly well-situated but needy candidate in Beverly
Farms. With the original horse stalls and carriage space
on the first floor and an apartment previously renovated
in the 1970s on the second floor, the configuration gave
the team plenty of recyclable components to support a
project that would incorporate significant elements
pointing to the structure's past.
