2010 NARI Capital CotY Finalist Award

This home had formerly been a cross between a contemporary open interior and an ugly boxy front with various small additions. It looked uninviting in the front, looking more like the side of a house with a portico stuck onto it, and the homeowner wanted it to be a classic warm design, incorporating the various pieces, and having a stunning entry both on the outside and inside. We were also asked to design a guest room on the lower level of the addition, and a larger master suite upstairs. We created an unusual front home addition, with a porch and master suite balcony, all with upgraded surfaces of brick, outdoor tile, vinyl no maintenance railing, hardwood flooring interiors, slate, marble and granite baths. We created a comfortable guest suite with full bath on the lower level, and a large master bedroom suite upstairs, with its own corner fireplace. We created a large master bath with both shower and soaking Jacuzzi tub, with fine hardwood cabinetry and upgraded plumbing fixtures. Finally, we clad the exterior in textured concrete plank siding, and upgrade material that requires almost no maintenance and is moisture and termite resistant.This home now looks as dramatic on the outside as it is on the inside, and welcoming to everyone!
