2001 Best Residential Historic
Renovation
This was the complete
renovation of a home built in 1900. It required the demolition of a
non-original wing on the rear of the house and the construction of a new
two-story addition that is historically compatible. It also included the
addition of a porte cochere and major re-build of the wraparound
porches.
38 double hung two-over-two windows were repaired and rebuilt. The house
was completely re-wired without tearing out any of the original tongue
in groove ceilings & walls, and thousands of feet of woodwork were
scraped, sanded and repaired.
The new owners report that the house feels both old and new at the same
time. The addition fits both functionally and aesthetically.
