01. The Challenge
The home, purchased after sitting vacant for an extended period, presented several challenges:
- Original Layout: The house featured a cramped and inefficient layout with underutilized spaces, making the interior feel smaller than its actual size.
- Aesthetic and Functional Obsolescence: Existing interiors were outdated, with worn fixtures and a lack of modern conveniences that could meet current living standards.
- Additional Space Requirement: The new homeowners required more space, specifically an additional bedroom and a more functional attic area.
This remodel will not only restore the home's charm but has also adapt it for modern living, ensuring it meets the expectations of today’s homeowners while preserving its unique character.
02. The Solution
Strategy: Complete Home Transformation
Steps:
- Structural Reconfiguration: We reimagined the home’s floor plan, converting unused space into a functional bedroom, thus expanding the living space without altering the home's footprint.
- Hallway Expansion: Opened up the hallways to enhance flow and connectivity between rooms, making the home feel more spacious and welcoming.
- Modernization of Interiors: Every room was updated with modern finishes and fixtures to elevate the home's comfort and aesthetic appeal. This included installing new flooring, updating all paint and trim, and integrating energy-efficient lighting solutions.
03. The Result
This extensive renovation transformed a once-neglected property into a vibrant, modern home tailored to the needs of its new owners. The added bedroom and revamped attic significantly increased the functional living space, while the open hallways contributed to a sense of expansiveness and fluidity throughout the home. Updated interiors now reflect contemporary tastes and standards, making the house not only more livable but also enhancing its market value and appeal.
