HouseHome took a small, dark, corner kitchen space, and turned it into a fun, bright, open, and functional kitchen that matches the age and stature of this beautiful historic home.

This small addition to an antique colonial added functional living space while the total renovation made living in a small house enjoyable and efficient. The addition actually went closer to the water so variances were granted by the state as well as town planning and historical commissions. The new railing system allows for full viewing of the water as you are seated at the table enjoying watching the activities on the water.

This historic home in Oak Park was in need of updating, with deferred maintenance inside and out requiring extensive work. This created an opportunity to rethink the house for a modern family in the 21st century, with an updated plan, a strong connection to the yard from the kitchen and new mudroom, covered patio, and flexible rooms for work-at-home, gym, or guest functions. The insulation and mechanical systems were upgraded to Phius levels, and a solar PV array added to meet annual net zero energy performance. With minimal upfront energy expenditure, the home’s operational carbon was reduced by 100%, and the house is a delightful place for the young family to grow into.

There were no built in kitchen cabinets in this small, 1870s farmhouse before the renovation. We added wall between the kitchen & dining as existing walls are permanent and/or connected to twin. Mixing black and maple, and adding recycled brick to the chimney bump-out, turned this into a charming and functional space.

The homeowner of this old, detached garage wanted to create a functional living space with a kitchen, bathroom and second-story bedroom, while still maintaining a functional garage space. We salvaged hickory wood for the floors and built custom fir cabinets in the kitchen with patchwork tile backsplash and energy efficient appliances. As a historical home but without historical requirements, we had fun blending era-specific elements like traditional wood windows, French doors, and wood garage doors with modern elements like solar panels on the roof and accent lighting in the stair risers. In preparation for the next phase of construction (a full kitchen remodel and addition to the main house), we connected the plumbing between the main house and carriage house to make the project more cost-effective. We also built a new gate with custom stonework to match the trellis, expanded the patio between the main house and garage, and installed a gas fire pit to seamlessly tie the structures together and provide a year-round outdoor living space.

These wonderful homeowner need room to maneuver around a wheel chair. This kitchen does this and more. Designed around the way they like to function in the kitchen with room enjoy their family and grandkids.

This beautiful historic carriage house was used as a library on the left side and an empty, tired, unfinished garage on the right. We designed a beautiful, eclectic, art studio with an old world charm. The clients used reclaimed elements that completed this fun and functional space.

Located in Huntington Bay on Long Island, this historical waterfront home was meticulously renovated and expanded by Stokkers & Company. The interior was transformed to create functional living spaces with a coastal aesthetic, all while maintaining the traditional heritage of the home’s exterior.

The kitchen and mudroom renovation of this 1880 New Hope, PA home balanced preservation with modern function. The project added contemporary features without losing the original charm, using warm materials and subtle contrasts for a unified look that honors its history. The design improved space flow, increased natural light, and incorporated custom touches to enhance usability within the historic structure.

This 1912 traditional style house sits on the edge of Cheesman Park with four levels that needed updating to better suit the young family’s needs. A custom wine room was constructed on the lower level to accommodate an area for entertaining guests. The main level was divided into a smaller family room area with a double door opening into the formal living room. The kitchen and butler’s pantry were combined and remodeled for better function. The second level master bathroom was relocated and created out of an adjacent bedroom, incorporating an existing fireplace and Juliet balcony that looks out to the park. A new staircase was constructed on the third level as a continuation of the grand staircase in the center of the house. A gathering and play space opens off the stairs and connects to the third-floor deck. A Jill & Jill bathroom remodel was constructed between the girls’ rooms.
