This 1948 Virginia Beach home had had many additions during many years. The idea of the homeowner was to restore it to it's period specific state with modern touches and a chef's kitchen. The homeowner wanted to preserve their personality in the home's colors, decor and design. Dental molding was added in the new spaces to create a uniform flow. Electrical, plumbing, HVAC, structural issues, dining room, mud room, laundry room, bedrooms, sunroom and an addition of a media/family room which doubles as a guest room put this home into modern day standards of luxury. The exterior needed to resolve drainage issues, a new roof, rain gutters, new doors and windows as well as all new landscaping. This house required a complete overhaul and the property owner saw a $195,000 increase in their appraised value with a cost of $140,000 to improve that in 6 months.
