Make the most of what you have with a remodel (or two). We were able to create extra living space and a workout area in the basement. We framed new walls and doorways to define the space. Then we updated some electrical and rerouted some plumbing to allow for a finished ceiling. We also insulated and then painted the newly finished drywall with Sherwin Williams Pediment. The floor in the workout area was finished in Lifeproof Vesinet Oak Luxury Vinyl Plank. The family had carpet installed in the living area for an extra cozy touch. We also updated their first-floor bathroom by replacing the walk-in tub with Charmeuse Smooth BCI Acrylic Shower Panels and custom glass doors from Solon Glass. We installed a new Millwood Pines vanity in oak with a ceramic countertop and sink. The Moen Cia matte black faucet and shower fixtures coordinate well with the other matte black finishes on the towel bar, shower glass door, vanity mirror and vanity lights. The floor was tiled in a graphite hex tile from Virginia Tile.

This urban townhouse took on new life when it was renovated for a couple relocating from New York City. The owner’s sophisticated taste, cultivated from world travels, paired with the character of the existing home and resulted in a fresh and colorful gem in the heart of the historic downtown. Extensive approvals from the local Historic District Commission preceded an addition on the rear of the time-honored building and a complete restoration of the exterior. The addition encompasses a first-floor, finished garage with arch doors that open to the gardens, ideal for entertaining. Above the garage accommodates the master bedroom, walk-in closets and a bathroom suite. The exterior restoration allowed the addition of window pediments, shutters with authentic hardware and gaslight features. Pocket gardens surround the townhouse and boast multiple plantings that complement a historic environment. The interior of the home was restructured to allow for reworking of the main stair. The reconfigured flight can now carry the weight of books and art alongside ascending residents and guests. Amid construction, two previously hidden fireplaces were uncovered. By the end of the renovation, four fireplaces were entirely refurbished and now lend immense aesthetic to interior design. The interior finishes within the home keep visitors engaged and impressed. From imported Italian tile to contextually historic light switches, the colorful décor is appealing to all senses. Specially painted walls coordinate with furnishings, bookcases and art.
