Modern Bungalow
WHOLE HOUSE RENOVATION AND ADDITION
Built in the 1940s, this cottage had an incredible amount of character and personality but was not conducive to the way we live today. The rooms were small and did not flow well into one another. The renovation of this house required opening up several rooms and adding square footage to the back of the home, all the while, keeping the curb appeal of a small cottage.

charlottegirl I've seen similar ones at Lantern & Scroll. I bought my lanterns from them, I looked at Flambeux but the quality was not nearly as good, and Lantern & Scroll's were less expensive! Yay! www.lanternandscroll.com Ask for Karen and the free shipping!

What Houzz contributors are saying:
added by Becky Harris to Porch Life: 11 Inspirational Small Porches
This tiny porch and its pediment give this home loads of curb appeal. From the Chippendale railings to the comfortable rockers, a welcoming entry where you'll want to stay awhile is evident.
added by Steele Marcoux to American Architecture: The Elements of Cape Cod Style
Element: Sidelights. Flanking the front door, they dress up the entry slightly more than the pilaster-lintel combo. Sidelights can be found on either side of paneled or French doors.How to make it your own: For the same effect without reconfiguring your entry space, try swapping out a solid door for one with windows.
