This home was completely remodelled with high end stainless steel appliances, custom millwork cabinets, new hardwood flooring throughout, and new fixtures. The updated home is now a bright, inviting space to entertain and create new memories in. The renovation continued into the living, dining, and entry areas as well as the upstairs bedrooms and master bathroom. A large barn door was installed in the upstairs master bedroom to conceal the walk in closet.

The bathroom was completely redone, with a new walk-in shower replacing an old tub and tile. The room is now open and airy, with a full glass enclosed shower. Popping blues and teals in the wallpaper continue the color scheme throughout the house, a more subtle floor with azure celeste and tazzo marble tie in blues and white. Wainscoting was added for a clean and classic look. A tailored pedestal sink is simple and chic, and highlights the champagne finish fixtures. A mod custom colored sconce adds whimsy to the space.

The warm and rich stains give Silverado its distinctive color and greatly enhance the rustic, truly heavily hand scraped plank. The continuously varied grains of this hardwood surface combined with the long length of 6 feet, a length that our competitor’s can only envy(most rotary floors are 4 feet long) and UV cured aluminum oxide coatings makes Silverado Plank stand out on the floor and captures the attention of anyone walking on it.
