Clients were wanting to expand their 50's era semi-bungalow to a full two storey so they could add one more bedroom and bathroom to their second level. Part of the plan was to create an actual master suite with proper ensuite bathroom and walk-in closet space. Phase one took the project to drywall stage, but later we added phase two where we finished the rest of the second level to finish stage along with a complete refresh of the main level with new finishings including flooring and counter-tops. The exterior of the home was also re-done including new windows, doors, and siding plus roof shingles of course. The result was a great and expanded character bungalow in a very desirable area located close to downtown.

Warm horizontal wood siding meets dark vertical metal cladding on this two-storey home. Black-framed windows, a gabled roof and a glass-railed timber entry give the front corner a crisp, contemporary profile. The contrasting siding directions clearly define the original lower level and the new upper-storey form.
