Commission approves exterior renovation for Rockledge house with materials to be finalized
Summary
The commission approved a Certificate of Appropriateness for a Rockledge residence’s re-siding, window replacement, and a new brick water table, asking the applicant to supply additional photos, elevations, and final material samples for visible elevations.
The Ossining Historic Preservation Commission approved exterior alterations for a Rockledge residence, including new siding, replacement windows, a brick water table at the base, and roof shingle changes, with the condition that final material samples and photos of visible elevations be submitted.
The applicant presented elevations, material samples and photos of existing conditions. Staff and commissioners asked for additional viewpoints, including east- and west-facing elevations and rear views from the parking lot to assess visibility from public vantage points.
Discussion covered siding profiles (6-inch planks noted), use of hardy plank, proposed brick at the base, and replacement windows (described as 400-series units). Commissioners confirmed that the existing green door is proposed to remain and that porch steps and banisters would be documented. The applicant and staff agreed to provide clearer photos and a final sample board for mortar, trim and brick color.
A motion to approve the COA/CFA passed. The commission recorded the approval and asked staff to ensure follow-up on listed details, including confirmation of window product, porch details and the brick color sample.
The commission then moved to continued business items.
