Located in Church Hill, Richmond’s oldest neighborhood, this very early 1900s Victorian had tons of historical details, but the house itself had been neglected (badly!). The home had two major renovation periods – one in 1950’s, and then again in the 1980s’s, which covered over or disrupted the original aesthetics of the house (think open ductwork, framing and drywall obscuring the beautiful mantels and moldings, and the hot water heater taking up valuable kitchen space). Our Piperbear team had to “undo” much before we could tackle the restoration of the historical features, while at the same time modernizing the layout.

A rear yard addition that takes a tiny wartime one and a half storey and transforms it into a spacious, airy modern home. The steel frame which opens up the back of the old house, and supports the new roof ridge, is left exposed and becomes a primary design feature of the new space. Slot windows are echoed above in the long narrow skylights creating a sense of height and amazing brightness while respecting privacy to the side yard.

The horizontal aspect of the timber combined with slot windows presents an undeniably modern composition rendered warm and inviting by its materials. The addition of a tall, glazed separation wall combines to create a beautiful family home with enviable kerb appeal
