This remodel would not have been complete without a complete rework of the staircase. Gone is the dull stained oak and carpet treads that formerly greeted you when you walked through the front door. In its place we put this beautiful two toned wooden staircase and rail, which continued the clean and fresh look of the rest of the remodel.. Photo By Tim Krueger

The St. Andrews was carefully crafted to offer large open living areas on narrow lots. When you walk into the St. Andrews, you will be wowed by the grand two-story celling just beyond the foyer. Continuing into the home, the first floor alone offers over 2,200 square feet of living space and features the master bedroom, guest bedroom and bath, a roomy den highlighted by French doors, and a separate family foyer just off the garage. Also on the first floor is the spacious kitchen which offers a large walk-in pantry, adjacent dining room, and flush island top that overlooks the great room and oversized, covered lanai. The lavish master suite features two oversized walk-in closets, dual vanities, a roomy walk-in shower, and a beautiful garden tub. The second-floor adds just over 600 square feet of flexible space with a large rear-facing loft and covered balcony as well as a third bedroom and bath.

Inspiration for a modern gray tile white floor doorless shower remodel with gray walls, flat-panel cabinets, white cabinets, an integrated sink and white countertops

Mr. and Mrs. had retired after spending years in ministry for God. They retired on a lake and had a beautiful view and front porch to enjoy the gorgeous view. We had completed a bathroom remodel for them the year before and had discussed adding a front porch. In the spring of 2020 we finalized the drawings, design and colors. Now, as they enjoy their retirement, not only will they have a great view of every sunset, they can continue to minister to people as they walk by their new front porch.

2014 CotY Award - Whole House Remodel $250,000-$500,000 Sutter Photographers - All bedrooms were updated with new hardwood floors, new Marvin windows, tall baseboards and crown molding, and whimsical light fixtures. -he light fixtures in the master bedroom (and master bath) add continuity and sparkle, not only in here, but throughout the home. -Custom drapery, bedding, and pillows complement each other and maintain continuity. -A portion of the original walk-in closet was stolen to make the Master Bedroom slightly larger; this decision enabled the addition of the small writing desk on the left and more room around the large bed. - A palette of 5 colors was used throughout the home to create a peaceful and tranquil feeling.

We gave this rather dated farmhouse some dramatic upgrades that brought together the feminine with the masculine, combining rustic wood with softer elements. In terms of style her tastes leaned toward traditional and elegant and his toward the rustic and outdoorsy. The result was the perfect fit for this family of 4 plus 2 dogs and their very special farmhouse in Ipswich, MA. Character details create a visual statement, showcasing the melding of both rustic and traditional elements without too much formality. The new master suite is one of the most potent examples of the blending of styles. The bath, with white carrara honed marble countertops and backsplash, beaded wainscoting, matching pale green vanities with make-up table offset by the black center cabinet expand function of the space exquisitely while the salvaged rustic beams create an eye-catching contrast that picks up on the earthy tones of the wood. The luxurious walk-in shower drenched in white carrara floor and wall tile replaced the obsolete Jacuzzi tub. Wardrobe care and organization is a joy in the massive walk-in closet complete with custom gliding library ladder to access the additional storage above. The space serves double duty as a peaceful laundry room complete with roll-out ironing center. The cozy reading nook now graces the bay-window-with-a-view and storage abounds with a surplus of built-ins including bookcases and in-home entertainment center. You can’t help but feel pampered the moment you step into this ensuite. The pantry, with its painted barn door, slate floor, custom shelving and black walnut countertop provide much needed storage designed to fit the family’s needs precisely, including a pull out bin for dog food. During this phase of the project, the powder room was relocated and treated to a reclaimed wood vanity with reclaimed white oak countertop along with custom vessel soapstone sink and wide board paneling. Design elements effectively married rustic and traditional styles and the home now has the character to match the country setting and the improved layout and storage the family so desperately needed.

When a client's son reached out wanting to remodel two bathrooms I was so excited because, one I loved their style, and two it meant I got to continue the relationship. They just had a baby and to brave remodeling in a pandemic was mind blowing. We did some creative consults, but Landmark Remodeling and the PID pulled it off.

This home had such great potential, but its original floor plan did not encourage a natural flow. The bathroom was hard for guests to find and the kitchen and living room were separated by two large fireplaces. We added structural beams, relocated the HVAC system, and replaced the water heater with an on-demand system, creating a larger continuous space that is comfortable for entertaining or family nights at home.

The original house, built in the early 18th century, was moved to this location two hundred years later. This whole house project includes an outdoor stage, a library, two barns, an exercise complex and extensive landscaping with tennis court and pools. A new stair winds upward to the study built as a widow's walk on the roof. A large window provides a view to the sea-wall at the bottom of the garden and Buzzard's Bay beyond. The new stair allows views from the central front hall into the Living Room, which spans the waterside. The bluestone-edged swimming pool and hot pool merge with the landscape, creating the illusion that the pool and the sea are continuous.

This room is in the basement but walks out into the beautiful terrace and pool level. We wanted to give this room the typical men's club feel. We choose the velt on the pooltable in a navy blue and continued with that accent color throughout the room. What an awesome entertainment room!

Continuing the natural finished walnut accent theme, we designed a window seat and floating shelf corner in the ensuite bedroom.

The clients found a vintage wall mounted sink and medicine cabinet to help embody the history of their home. Along the same lines, the original marble hex tile floor and bathtub were refinished instead of replaced. A window was added in the shower to make the space seem bigger and brighter.
