Rear Elevation transformed by the 1000 sf addition built in 2009. Fiber cement siding painted a deep red color. Marvin windows and doors. Brick matched exactly, 50 years later - amazing find.

The half bath was moved to expand the dining room. So the former 8'x8' kitchen was centered on this window. Painted wood wainscot gives a nice simple finish to compliment the style.
