Smart Home Integration in Cos Cob

Cos Cob sits on Cos Cob Harbor at the mouth of the Mianus River. Between 1890 and 1920, painters gathered at the Bush-Holley House here and made it one of the first Impressionist art colonies in America.

In short · Cos Cob

Elevated Integration designs and installs smart home, lighting, audio, networking and home theater systems in Cos Cob, from the harbor to the Mianus River, from our office in Armonk. We retrofit older houses without opening every wall, and plan new builds before the walls close.

Our work
Rooster Hill Cinema

The village grew as a working harbor, shipping produce to New York, and the oldest streets still run down to the water around the Strickland Road Historic District. Inland and up the river, the houses are colonials and capes from across the last century, with a good deal of renovation and new construction on the larger lots.

Older houses are where care matters most. We retrofit through finished walls and old plaster, run cable where it will never be seen, and choose small, well-finished keypads instead of rows of switches. When a house is being taken back to the studs, we plan the whole system before the walls close, which costs far less than adding it later.

Near the harbor and the river, we plan for water: equipment and backup power kept high and dry, and outdoor gear that can take the weather.

Architecture

A harbor village, grown up

Eighteenth- and nineteenth-century harbor houses, colonials and capes, and new construction on the larger inland lots. The old houses ask for a quiet retrofit; the new ones ask for a plan before framing.

Lifestyle

Painters' light, family life

The same harbor light that drew the Impressionists, and family houses busy every day. Lighting that is right at every hour, music in the rooms that are used, and a network that keeps up with everyone.

What Cos Cob asks for

Landscape lighting in Cos Cob

In Cos Cob, we light old trees, stone walls and the path to the water in layers, with solid brass fixtures that weather well and stay out of sight by day.

Questions

Cos Cob, answered.

Who installs luxury smart home systems in Cos Cob, CT?
Elevated Integration designs and installs smart home, lighting, audio, networking and home theater systems in Cos Cob, from our office in Armonk. We work across Greenwich, including Riverside, Old Greenwich and Belle Haven.
Can you add a system to an older house without opening every wall?
Mostly, yes. We route cable through attics, basements and existing chases, use wireless controls where wiring is impractical, and plan the few openings with your contractor so they are patched and painted once.
What is the difference between a retrofit and planning during construction?
In a retrofit, we work around finished walls and the system follows the house. When the walls are open, we design the system first and the house is built around it. The second is cleaner and usually costs less for the same result.
Is Cos Cob part of Greenwich?
Yes. Cos Cob is a neighborhood of the Town of Greenwich with its own post office name and ZIP code, 06807, so permits and inspections run through Greenwich.
What is the Bush-Holley House?
A house on Cos Cob Harbor built around 1730, now a National Historic Landmark run by the Greenwich Historical Society. Between 1890 and 1920 it was the center of the Cos Cob art colony, where American Impressionists painted and taught.
