About Patrick Ahearn Architect

For more than four decades, Patrick Ahearn Architect has specialized in creating classic American architecture designed for contemporary living. Whether restoring and renovating landmarked homes or crafting new residences that reimagine the classical architectural vernacular of New England, our firm balances the romance of traditional architecture with the ideals of modernism. Working largely in Greater Boston, on Cape Cod and Martha’s Vineyard, we are sensitive to the original spirit of every property and its surrounding neighborhood. This allows us to create beautifully authentic homes that stand as integral parts of their historic surroundings, even as they encourage people to live the way they want to live today.
