This well-loved home belonging to a family of seven was overdue for some more room. Renovations by the team at Advance Design Studio entailed both a lower and upper level addition to original home. Included in the project was a much larger kitchen, eating area, family room and mud room with a renovated powder room on the first floor. The new upper level included a new master suite with his and hers closets, a new master bath, outdoor balcony patio space, and a renovation to the only other full bath on in that part of the house.
Having five children formerly meant that when everyone was seated at the large kitchen table, they couldn’t open the refrigerator door! So naturally the main focus was on the kitchen, with a desire to create a gathering place where the whole family could hang out easily with room to spare. The homeowner had a love of all things Irish, and careful details in the crown molding, hardware and tile backsplash were a reflection. Rich cherry cabinetry and green granite counter tops complete a traditional look so as to fit right in with the elegant old molding and door profiles in this fine old home.
The second focus for these parents was a master suite and bathroom of their own! After years of sharing, this was an important feature in the new space. This simple yet efficient bath space needed to accommodate a long wall of windows to work with the exterior design. A generous shower enclosure with a comfortable bench seat is open visually to the his and hers vanity areas, and a spacious tub. The makeup table enjoys lots of natural light spilling through large windows and an exit door to the adult’s only exclusive coffee retreat on the rooftop adjacent.
Added square footage to the footprint of the house allowed for a spacious family room and much needed breakfast area. The dining room pass through was accentuated by a period appropriate transom detail encasing custom designed carved glass detailing that appears as if it’s been there all along. Reclaimed painted tin panels were added to the dining room ceiling amongst elegant crown molding for unique and dramatic dining room flair. An efficient dry bar area was tucked neatly between the great room spaces, offering an excellent entertainment area to circulating guests and family at any time.
This large family now enjoys regular Sunday breakfasts and dinners in a space that they all love to hang out in. The client reports that they spend more time as a family now than they did before because their house is more accommodating to them all. That’s quite a feat anyone with teenagers can relate to! Advance Design was thrilled to work on this project and bring this family the home they had been dreaming about for many, many years.

The master bedroom and its oversized windows were designed to highlight the mountain view with a spa-like master bathroom and large walk-in closet, allowing direct passage to the laundry room. A large, covered back deck, stone accents and oversized three-car garage contribute to paramount wish-list items. This luxurious home fits the custom market without the custom price.

Master Bathroom Remodeling Project – Fort Washington, PA
BMR Belmax Remodeling recently completed a stunning master bathroom transformation in a single-family home in Fort Washington, PA. The original bathroom, which had remained unchanged for over 30 years, featured an outdated layout with a traditional bathtub that no longer met the homeowners’ needs. Our team executed a complete remodel, introducing modern design elements, upgraded functionality, and a fresh aesthetic that exceeded the client’s expectations.
The Vision
The goal of the project was to create a modern and functional master bathroom tailored to the homeowner’s preferences. The existing bathtub was removed to accommodate a sleek, walk-in shower, and the overall design was updated with contemporary features and materials to transform the space into a luxurious retreat.
Key Updates and Features
1. Walk-In Shower Installation
The centerpiece of this remodel is the new walk-in shower. Featuring elegant marble-look tiles with subtle gray veins, the shower exudes a timeless and luxurious feel. We installed high-quality sliding glass shower doors that provide both a seamless look and easy access. The shower also includes updated fixtures for a modern and polished finish.
2. New Double Vanity
A spacious double vanity replaced the outdated single-sink unit. This new vanity provides ample storage and workspace while complementing the bathroom’s refreshed design. Finished with a smooth, high-gloss surface and paired with stylish hardware, it enhances both the functionality and the aesthetic of the room.
3. Upgraded Flooring and Fixtures
The floor was redone with durable, modern tiles that coordinate beautifully with the marble-look shower tiles. We also installed a new toilet, an efficient exhaust fan, and updated lighting fixtures to enhance both comfort and ventilation. A lighted mirror was added to bring a touch of modern convenience while brightening the space.
4. Elegant Color Palette
To complete the transformation, the bathroom was painted in a soft gray shade. This color harmonizes perfectly with the gray veining in the shower tiles, creating a cohesive and serene atmosphere.
Customer Feedback
The homeowners were thrilled with the results, describing their new master bathroom as “breathtaking” and “functional.” The successful execution of this project led them to immediately book two additional projects with BMR Belmax Remodeling, including a powder room renovation and hallway updates with door installations.

This rustic style home on Hartwell Lake was designed and built for the owners to enjoy with family and friends during their active weekend lifestyle. The home was built on a narrow, deep lot that was semi-level on the roadside and steep on the lakeside. The back half of the lot heavily wooded with mature oak and poplar trees reducing the harsh sun’s heat gain on the home.
The exterior utilizes fiber cement cedar shake and lap siding complimented by deep brown colors for the windows, soffit, trim and the large square columns. A nice balance of natural earth toned stacked stone rounds out the exterior materials completing the rustic casual lake living.
The home 5400 SF is designed and built on thee levels each having a primary focus. The main level creates primary daily living for the owners. This level features an open plan with an entry, stair, dining, kitchen and living areas leading to a large lakeside screened porch. A master suite is privately tucked off its own hallway and allowing it to enjoy the lakeside as well with its own private deck. On the opposite side are two bedrooms, a study and a shared bathroom for each to utilize. An open carport for two vehicles was created with the motor court and connects to the mudroom/utility room giving the owners direct entry into their home.
The upper level is for the grand children with an oversized bedroom, bathroom and loft area for play.
The lower level is the considered the party level. Its primary feature is an elevated stage for the owner’s band opened to a large seating area, dining and kitchen for viewing and listening with direct access to another screened porch. Flanking each side is a theater and two additional bedrooms and bathrooms.
Energy Efficient features include:
• The majority of the lower level sunk into the site below grade
• 6” thick walls utilizing advanced framing techniques
• Foil covered roof sheathing
• Extensive use of blown in cellulous
• All windows & doors are double paned low E argon filed glass
• Tank-less water heaters
• Three separate high efficiency HVAC units with programmable thermostats and a fresh air ERV.
Lastly the owner requested we make every effort to sound proof the home. Many materials and techniques gave a duel purpose and added to the energy efficiency.
These items include:
• 2x6 walls with staggered studs
• Extensive use if rock wool acoustic batting
• Tempered glass in all exterior doors and windows
• ¼ thick Mass Loaded Vinyl (MLV) was installed on the top and bottom of the floor trusses and on all lower level walls.
The combination of the design and detailing utilizing these specific materials enabled us to achieve a 5 Star Plus Energy Star Certification with a HERS Index Score of 50. This home received a the 2015 Pinnacle Award from the SC Home Builders Association for the “Best Achievement in Energy Efficiency” sponsored by the SC Department Commerce.

This classic 1970's rambler was purchased by our clients as their 'forever' retirement home and as a gathering place for their large, extended family. Situated on a large, verdant lot, the house was burdened with extremely dated finishes and poorly conceived spaces. These flaws were more than offset by the overwhelming advantages of a single level plan and spectacular sunset views. Weighing their options, our clients executed their purchase fully intending to hire us to immediately remodel this structure for them.
Our first task was to open up this plan and give the house a fresh, contemporary look that emphasizes views toward Lake Washington and the Olympic Mountains in the distance. Our initial response was to recreate our favorite Great Room plan. This started with the elimination of a large, masonry fireplace awkwardly located in the middle of the plan and to then tear out all the walls. We then flipped the Kitchen and Dining Room and inserted a walk-in pantry between the Garage and new Kitchen location.
While our clients' initial intention was to execute a simple Kitchen remodel, the project scope grew during the design phase. We convinced them that the original ill-conceived entry needed a make-over as well as both bathrooms on the main level. Now, instead of an entry sequence that looks like an afterthought, there is a formal court on axis with an entry art wall that arrests views before moving into the heart of the plan. The master suite was updated by sliding the wall between the bedroom and Great Room into the family area and then placing closets along this wall - in essence, using these closets as an acoustical buffer between the Master Suite and the Great Room. Moving these closets then freed up space for a 5-piece master bath, a more efficient hall bath and a stacking washer/dryer in a closet at the top of the stairs.

This master bathroom features a space-efficient layout with a fully enclosed walk-in shower framed in clear tempered glass. The shower walls, floor, and curb are clad in continuous vein-cut travertine tile, creating visual flow and minimizing grout interruptions. Integrated corner shelves are recessed into the tile layout, providing discreet storage without projection into the showering zone. A dual-function showerhead with fixed and handheld spray options is mounted in brushed nickel, paired with a recessed wall valve for water control.
Adjacent to the shower, the toilet is positioned centrally along the wet wall to optimize plumbing efficiency. The vanity is constructed from wood with louvered cabinet fronts and tapered legs, topped with a matching travertine slab featuring a molded oval basin and brushed nickel fixtures. A four-light fixture above the mirror delivers diffused task lighting across the counter. The flooring continues the same natural tile for a unified material aesthetic.

This summer cottage was winterized in the 1960’s as a year round home. The new owners decided to remodel the master suite to achieve more efficient energy saving and storage needs. After a design by another builder failed to inspire them, Excelsior Design Group was commissioned to review the project.
Client Objectives
The homeowners were looking to convert an old master bathroom into a walk in closet, remodel a guest bedroom into a master bathroom and remodel a hall bathroom into a laundry room.
Project Details
It was immediately determined that the master bath and closet layout previously designed needed to be flipped. The old master bathroom became the walk in closet for Susan. The new walk-in closet, designed to accommodate hundreds of shoes, was designed by Janis Gaut of Closet Factory and incorporates the same marble tops as the vanities and the fireplace.

A Carolee McCall Smith design, this new home took its inspiration from the old-world charm of traditional farmhouse style. Details of texture rather than color create an inviting feeling while keeping the decor fresh and updated. Painted brick, natural wood accents, shiplap, and rustic no-maintenance floors act as the canvas for the owner’s personal touches.
The layout offers defined spaces while maintaining natural connections between rooms. A wine bar between the kitchen and living is a favorite part of this home! Spend evening hours with family and friends on the private 3-season screened porch.

The Home
The Horizon is the culmination of many years of thoughtful customer ideas, past and present, that have influenced our designs. Our
stunning semi-custom home represents true main-level living with panoramic views, on 35 acres in Peyton. The Horizon features large
windows thoughtfully placed to capture stunning Pikes Peak views, provide natural light, and passive solar gain in the open living, dining and kitchen area.
With just over 3,800 square feet, four bedrooms, four bathrooms and a dedicated office this home is stylish, functional and efficient. The master bedroom and its oversized windows were designed to highlight the mountain view with a spa-like master bathroom and large walk-in closet, allowing direct passage to the laundry room. A large, covered back deck, stone accents and oversized three-car garage contribute to paramount wish-list items. This luxurious home fits the custom market without the custom price.

We make a conscious effort to provide our clients with a custom-built home - without the custom price - through broad vision, careful thought and handcrafted design. Our homes are uniquely tailored to fit individual lifestyles. Each member of the MasterBilt Homes family is invested in every client and every home we build. That commitment has been rewarded again and again through repeat customers and referrals, making up a large portion of our business. We understand that our future depends on your satisfaction. Modify our plans, bring your ideas, and we will help you realize your dream home.
The Interior Design
Masterbilt Homes’ Horizon is a genuine representation of our company culture, which values and respects the partnerships that make our business successful. This floorplan has evolved over the last 25 years with creative design ideas from members of our staff, past customers, designers and friends. Together, we have created a traditional yet modern home, with all the latest upgrades that customers have come to expect. You will see that the outside curb appeal is also reflected inside the home, with attention to every designed detail.
MasterBilt Homes would like to thank our friends, family, customers, sub-contractors, professionals and partners for all your support and service creating Horizon
