This remodel consisted of a whole house transformation. We took this 3 bedroom dated home and turned it into a 5 bedroom award winning showpiece, all without an addition. By reworking the awkward floor plan and lowering the living room floor to be level with the rest of the house we were able to create additional space within the existing footprint of the home. What was once the small lack-luster master suite, is now 2 kids bedrooms that share a jack and jill bath. The master suite was relocated to the first floor, and the kitchen that was located right at the front door, is now located in the back of the home with great access to the patio overlooking the golf course.

This doorway was widened and the pass through added, in lieu of removing the (load bearing) wall. The perpendicular wall to the left contains the HVAC supply to the second floor. The decision to leave the load bearing wall and HVAC ducting (and walls) in place reduces the budget by roughly half. The appliance relocation and pass through allow for better traffic flow, more counter work space and more natural light in both spaces.

The house was livable but needed some attention. The entry steps lead up to an open living area with a great deal of light from the entry and bow windows. The metal railing had been painted many times so it was stripped and powder coated. All of the doors had been painted so they were all replaced and stained with flat doors to match the original. Laminate flooring in the kitchen, dining and living areas replaced worn carpet. The entry light fixture from Ikea worked well with my 1970s design for the interior with its wood frame, cut out pattern and cone shape. Chad Shiflett

Master Suite Anteroom This room provides for practical storage for the homeowners(e.g. keys and purse), incidental storage, as well as display for sentimental items. The room also acts as a buffer between the suite and the rest of the upstairs.

1970's Split Level Kitchen remodel- removed most of the wall to the dining room and gave this kitchen a complete update from the vintage 1970's look.

Split-level houses are common in the Greater Seattle area. One of the common challenges with these homes is the open floorplan with misaligned fireplace and stairway railing. The features we chose to highlight in the living area are the fireplace, floor-to-ceiling window, and fully updated chef's kitchen. Floating furniture and careful placement of the accent colors allowed us to evenly distribute our staging pieces. So we were able to create a cozy lounging area close to the fireplace without blocking any of the home's selling features.

This West Linn 1970's split level home received a complete exterior and interior remodel. The design included removing the existing roof to vault the interior ceilings and increase the pitch of the roof. Custom quarried stone was used on the base of the home and new siding applied above a belly band for a touch of charm and elegance. The new barrel vaulted porch and the landscape design with it's curving walkway now invite you in.
