When the homeowners purchased this house last year, they knew it needed work but they were up for the challenge. It had great bones, the location was ideal, in a top rated school district, but the home hadn't been touched in years. The current dark wood trim, compartmentalized floor plan and dated materials did not lend to the homeowners hopes for a light and bright open layout. After removing the interior walls and reconfiguring the floor plan to include a laundry/mud room off the garage, pantry and a large island for entertaining, the home is now a great place for this family of six to grow together for many years to come.
