This Riverdale semi-detached whole home renovation features some of the most frequently requested upgrades from Carter Fox clients: open-concept living, more light, a new kitchen and a more effective solution for the entry area. To deliver this wish list, we removed most of the interior walls on the main floor, upgraded the kitchen, and added a large sliding glass door across the back wall. We also built a new wall separating the entrance and living room, and built in a custom bench seat and storage area. Upstairs, we expanded one room to create a dedicated laundry room and created a larger 2nd floor bathroom. In the master bedroom we installed a wall of closets. Finally we updated all electrical and plumbing, painted and installed new flooring throughout the house.

How do you squeeze a soaker tub, steam shower, walk-in closet, large master bedroom, and a private study into the renovation of a 2-story East Danforth semi? By going UP! For this project, the homeowner had a firm budget and didn't dream it could include a new kitchen as well as the 3rd-floor addition. With some creative solutions and our experience remodeling older homes, Carter Fox delivered an open-concept light-filled home that preserved several original elements in order to save budget for the must-have items - AND a new, customized kitchen.

This Bainbridge Island, WA Master Bathroom remodel made quite a transformation from the old existing bathroom. We were able to open up the wall between the main bathroom and shower/ toilet areas. A half wall was formed from the existing wall adding a decorative glass panel above it. Keeping part of the wall to create a beam appearance to attach a sliding glass barn door hardware to. In the shower wall, we added a window with the same decorative glass and made the wall thicker to create a shower seat and hide ducting and plumbing pipes. Avoiro colored porcelain tiles in the 12x24 size were installed on the floor and shower walls with a random glass and stone mosaic cut into strips to form a decorative listello liner detail. The sleek contemporary style cabinets are from DeWil's Custom Cabinetry Horizon line, Capella door style in Bamboo with 112 Stain. We also added a matching tall linen cabinet and makeup vanity area across the room from the bath vanity. The vanity top and wall cap are Pental Quartz/ color: Sandcastle.
