The Refurbished Greek Revival
Photo: Craig Freeman, www.craigfreemanphotography.com
The homeowners of this shore home desired a whole house renovation to add authentic exterior details to their 1900 Greek Revival home. The work included: new windows; pre-painted cedar siding; crown mouldings; balustrade atop the flat roof; front portico featuring ionic columns and dentil mouldings. The renovation also included fluted pilasters on all corners of the house.

Contest Details
Update: Congratulations to our winner Fred Eche, who took home the prize with his Ginerbread House.
*Contest is closed.
Beginning August 16 and running through September 29, Fine Homebuilding readers can submit photos of their favorite exterior trim details for a chance to win the new Senco Fusion cordless nailer.
We’re in search of those crowns, casings, and columns that separate the instant classics from the cookie-cutter homes. It may be a carefully reproduced railing on a historic home, or it could be the subtle proportions on those new widow casings that make the front of the house pop.
Contest ended on September 29, 2010.
Winners were announced on October 8, 2010.
