We removed the hallway and demising wall to enlarge the front room of this colonial era row house. Respecting the home's historic bones (Benedict Arnold lived a couple doors up) we maintained the window and ceiling trim and old pine floors. During demolition we excavated a hidden second fireplace and embraced the quirkiness by giving the living room two.

The dark exterior siding color was chosen to complement the stone foundation and preserve the feel of the barn. photo: scott benedict practical(ly) studios
