On the outskirts of a rural Ohio college town, a growing family (Mom, Dad, kids, dog, chickens, and Alpacas) is taking on the task of turning a run-down farmhouse into a family home.

Phase one is just about done - a few details are left to touch up - and the results are pretty spectacular.

All three floors of the house have been transformed - some rooms were completely redone (kitchen, master bath, master bedroom) while others needed just a cleanup and a coat of paint.

Most exciting is what was done with attic. At first glance it didn't seem to be big enough for an entire master suite. But by taking advantage of every nook and cranny, and adding a small shed dormer, we were able to create a wonderful space is a surprise to everyone who visits the home.
