With this house, we had a unique opportunity to remodel a classic Victorian while preserving its sophisticated woodworking details. The B&B scope involved significant structural changes: we transformed 500 square feet of crawlspace into a basement with an impressive 8'6" ceiling height. In addition to the existing metal spiral staircase—an eyesore and safety concern for the owners—we added a new open staircase to connect the main floor to the basement. The remodel also included a new bedroom/office with a bathroom, turning the basement into a fully independent living space.
