Modern Farmhouse New Addition and Remodel

These clients came to us in one of our design seminars last spring. They have a country home that they wanted to add a brand new addition and completely remodel. The addition would house a new living space with a vaulted ceiling, which would then be open to the kitchen and dining area. The old living room would become a new master suite, with a new master bathroom and closet. We would also be redoing the cabinets in their laundry room and their second bathroom as well. The engineered wood flooring, the tile and the master shower we picked out from Wright’s. The cabinets are our Shiloh brand and designed by Elizabeth Yager Designs through Kuche Fine Cabinetry. And the counter tops are from Kuche Fine Cabinetry but through Pyramid Marble and Granite.
