Antique Java from the Strand Woven Hand-Scraped Bamboo Collection features pre-finished premium-grade (1/2” thick x 5-5/8” wide) strand woven solid plank flooring with a rich warm look. Each pole of this rapidly-renewing bamboo species from the remote mountain farms of Southeast Asia is hand-selected after six years of growth. The eco-friendly collection is handscraped, making each plank unique and can be used on or above grade on concrete or wooden subfloors. This beautiful flooring has four-sided tongue-and-groove edges with a 7-layer Treffert® UV-cured aluminum oxide acrylic urethane hand scraped finish.

Purchased by the current owner in 2013, this property had been gutted to exposed brick and subfloors, leaving nothing but an open shell behind. While an extensive remodeling project was undertaken across the property as a whole, a brand-new cozy cocoon was meticulously crafted within the property’s cellar. The centerpiece of this space is the Badu Swimjet saltwater pool and adjoining hot tub that allows for both lap swimming and deep-soaking relaxation.

Two totally refreshed bathroom remodels take center stage in this St. Louis Park home. The homeowners loved their 1968 split level home and its unique period features. It was a well-built custom home with gorgeous maple trim and oak floors throughout. However, the main bathroom had water damage to the sub-floor that needed to be replaced. The owners decided to go ahead and update the rest of the bathroom at the same time, taking care of other items they had long wanted to do. For example, the plumbing was outdated, and the shower didn’t drain well. They also hoped for a wood vanity that would match the rest of the home, in look and era, and wished the previous homeowners hadn’t painted the original. As the couple discussed the remodel, they ultimately decided to take the plunge and take advantage of work being done in the home and update both the main floor bathroom and the master bathroom at the same time. Tackling both projects at once made sense for project efficiency, both in time and budget, and they are thrilled to now each have “their own” new bathroom!

We are transforming a 27x23 foot storage garage with exposed studs and rafters into a great get-away "cabin" made for entertaining and relaxing. In order to winterize the kitchen/bath area (to the right of the kitchen), the homeowner will have doors pulled down from the ceiling to the counter and a barn door will close the doorway. The owner will be subflooring over the cement floor to bring in plumbing. I scanned in their window views.

Built in the early 1950s, this small urban townhouse is located in North Old Town Alexandria in an area currently undergoing major redevelopment. The neighborhood is popular with, and affordable for, young people and families, and very convenient to Washington, DC. In its heyday, the townhouse touted a stately brick exterior, plaster walls, tongue and groove wood flooring and beautiful wooden staircase. Sixty years later, however, the homeowners were faced with crumbling masonry, sagging floors, a double layer of wallpaper over the plaster walls, a crumbling staircase, a dysfunctional kitchen and small, dark second floor rooms. Additionally, the basement had a low ceiling, moldy and cinder block walls, no plumbing and a large boiler taking up most of the space. The homeowners’ goal was to restore the exterior’s historic look while creating an interior up-to-date for the 21st Century. To turn their vision into reality, they turned to Michael Nash Design, Build & Homes. Design Solutions To maintain the townhome’s historic exterior, the Michael Nash team carefully removed, salvaged, restored and reused existing brick masonry. Matching fascia boards and windows were combined with existing windows to complete the exterior renovation. All interior walls were gutted and reframed. New electrical work, new insulation and new drywall were installed. Much of the home’s original trim was salvaged and reused, as was a piece of art glass, all to keep a bit of the past in the renovation. The sagging subfloors were fixed, new hard wood floors were installed and a new staircase and railing were designed in a style similar to the original. The solid wall between the kitchen and the dining room was removed, plumbing was relocated for a new sink location and the kitchen got expanded with an island into the dining room. Closet and plumbing stacks were relocated to allow a new space for fridge. Stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and custom cabinetry highlight the new modern kitchen. The plan called for redesigning the three bedrooms on the second floor to allow a larger bathroom, walk-in closet and wider hallways. In addition to new roofing, a large skylight was installed to allow natural light into the bathroom and the upper hallway. The basement was totally revamped. New plumbing was put in place for a full bathroom, laundry room and a den. New e-grass window was installed in the basement to bring this basement up to current building codes. This homeowners love the neighborhood and now their home gives them the opportunity to stay in the same location.

Project Highlight: Custom Home Gym & Complete Multi-Zone Basement Remodeling in Franklin Lakes, New Jersey A comprehensive, multi-zone lower-level transformation completed by Magnolia Home Remodeling Group in Bergen County. This expansive project highlights our capacity as a full-service New Jersey general contractor, taking a raw basement layout and engineering it into highly functional, distinct luxury living zones: a dedicated private home fitness center, a spacious bedroom suite, a completely upgraded full bathroom, and a direct-replacement half-bath. Architectural & Spatial Highlights: * Custom Home Fitness Center: The center jewel of this renovation is a 136 SF dedicated home gym space. Our carpentry team constructed custom structural knee walls specially framed to receive custom-fit glass panel viewing walls, offering a modern, open-concept line of sight into the main living areas. The space is optimized for high-impact workouts featuring durable rubber mat flooring with custom transitions, custom wood paneling applied across the gym walls and ceiling, a built-in filtered water line system, and dedicated column boxing to seamlessly conceal structural posts, ducts, and mechanical headers. * The Electrical Framework: To maintain a clean, ultra-bright subterranean environment, our electrical division mapped out and wired an extensive layout featuring thirty (30) 6-inch recessed LED ceiling lights, fourteen (14) dimmable wall switches, and code-required perimeter wall outlets tied directly into the main panel. * Luxury Basement Bathrooms: A complete remodel of a three-fixture full bathroom featuring a spacious 30” x 60” standing shower with an integrated acrylic base, thermostat-controlled rain shower head, handheld wand extensions, and a custom vanity system. The room is wrapped in premium customer-supplied Artistic Tile ceramic layouts across 52 SF of flooring and 90 SF of floor-to-ceiling wet-wall surfaces. The secondary powder room features a direct replacement vanity with integrated vanity power extensions and a modern toilet swap. * Flooring & Staircase Entry: The high-traffic zones of the 890 SF open area are finished in luxury vinyl tile (LVT) with premium sound-dampening underlayment over a meticulous subfloor-leveled base. The main staircase entry was updated with structural vinyl tread covers over the fifteen box steps, paired with a custom carpet runner. Managed from day-one demolition through rough building inspections to the final paint walkthrough, this Franklin Lakes project represents the benchmark of our family-owned team’s 30+ year commitment to transparent, full-service New Jersey home transformations.

This project was a complete demo to studs and what was left of the subfloor due to water damage, mold and rot.

Full main floor and basement renovation including complete floor plan relocation; kitchen, wet bar, staircase, hardwood floors and fireplace. The existing undersized kitchen was tucked into the middle of a segmented floor plan, which included a curved staircase that crowded the small foyer and blocked sightlines upon entering the home. The upgraded open concept floor plan welcomes occupants into an expanded kitchen, dining and living space. The new gas fireplace with custom millwork surround offers a cozy sitting room adjacent to the modernized staircase opened to the basement below. The basement remodel includes super insulated subfloor and exterior walls offering comfortable living space, complete with powder room, rec room and fitness area.
