Cape Cod Coastal Dining Rooms: Ideas for Entertaining

November 11, 2022

The dining room is a place to gather. Therefore, it is an ideal space to display your personal style. This can be done through room design, lighting, color and furnishings. Whether you’re entertaining for the holidays, hosting summer guests, or throwing a small dinner party, these coastal dining rooms are sure to inspire.

We’ve hand picked a few dining rooms from McPhee Associates recent custom home builds or renovation projects. These coastal homes range from classic to contemporary to rustic—all perfect for entertaining.

Second Home Owners from Maryland

“This was our first brand-new custom-built home. While our Dennis house was being built, we were living in Maryland, more than 500 miles away. We especially appreciated the extra effort and sound guidance that you provided us during our three trips to the Cape at significant construction milestones…“

Barry and Judy, East Dennis, MA

Harwich Port Project

“McPhee Associates has been great to work with, and the quality of your work and that of your subcontractors have been top notch…I especially appreciate the help that you gave us while we negotiated a difficult permitting process, and your expertise with the Town of Harwich was invaluable. I look forward to the opportunity of working with you again.”

New Build in Harwich Port

“Your professionalism and the way you have made the building process as easy as possible for us has been wonderful. Naturally, all our neighbors and plenty of strangers passing by have asked us about McPhee’s services and our response has consistently been the same – we are very pleased and haven’t even one criticism. We would highly recommend McPhee to anyone – Rob, you have quite the team…On this second anniversary of the start of the project, I wanted to send a sincere thank you to all of you.”
