Jewett Construction completes 8,000 s/f Bean Group headquarters

BeanGroupComplete 1150 Sagamore Ave. - Portsmouth, NH

Portsmouth, NH Jewett Construction Co., Inc. has completed construction of an 8,000 s/f office building to house the Bean Group’s new corporate headquarters at 1150 Sagamore Ave.

The distinctive wood framed and cedar shingled building includes a masonry veneer and such unique design elements as eyebrow dormers with windows, a rotunda and cupola with metal roofing to contrast the asphalt shingled main roofs, and architectural brackets adjacent to all windows to accentuate the elegant look of the building.

The sophisticated interior features gas-fired fireplaces in both the reception area and executive office. Stylish trim lines the corridors, with full length glass windows framing the cherry doors of offices and conference rooms. The collaborative meeting spaces are set beneath high ceilings, bringing the architectural intent of the design to life. The reception area is accented with a 27 foot long, three-dimensional, wave inspired wall that ties the building to its seacoast location.

Jewett Construction, an official Butler Builder, is a family-owned design-build/construction management firm specializing in automotive, commercial and industrial projects throughout the Northeast.
