These new homeowners fell in love with this home's location and size, but weren't thrilled about it's dated exterior. They approached us with the idea of turning this 1980's contemporary home into a Modern Farmhouse aesthetic, complete with white board and batten siding, a new front porch addition, a new roof deck addition, as well as enlarging the current garage. New windows throughout, new metal roofing, exposed rafter tails and new siding throughout completed the exterior renovation.

Located in the private Cypress Point neighborhood in Plano, this small backyard was transformed from a small garden area to an updated and modern outdoor living area. In addition to the new covered porch and fire place, we have added outdoor seating for chaise lounges, along with a modern plunge pool & spa with raised backdrop fountain feature. The project also features built-in seating, fountain spillways, decorative pool tile, step stones and all new landscaping to provide a lush, private retreat for the owners.

How cool is this? We designed a pull-out tower, in three sections, beside "her" sink, to give the homeowner handy access for her make-up and hair care routine. We even installed the mirror exactly for her height! The sides of the pull-out were done in metal, to maximize the interior width of the shelves, and we even customized it so that the widest items she wanted to store in here would fit on these shelves!

This addition expands the left rear of the home toward the water and serves as a combination office/guest/sitting room. Vaulted ceilings, a wall of windows and a sliding door leading to the adjacent patio let in natural light and inspiring views year round. Since It's accessible from both the Primary Bedroom and Living Room, those spaces also benefit from the light and views this new room offers. This space perfectly demonstrates the Owners' desire for an open plan that also provides privacy.

The new back Bedroom has a vaulted ceiling and a bay window that captures light and views from three directions. The high window over the dresser brings in additional light while preserving privacy. Wood flooring continues from the main level and stair for a consistent look. The quilt and pillows mirror many color choices throughout the home.

Our designer has achieved a stylish look by combining dark cabinets and light-colored marbles.
