Project Description
With a growing family and desire to preserve the original form of the home, this addition and complete renovation creates an open and casual living space more suitable to the homeowner’s needs. With lot and form restrictions, the bulk of the addition takes place in the back of the home; an expanded kitchen features a masonry fireplace, and a new master suite and family room allow for ample living space. A wrap around back porch and covered porch off the front creates a connection to the outdoors, as well as ample overhangs for passive solar strategies, and a completely renovated lower level gives the home even more functionality.
A geothermal heat pump, supplying the radiant in-floor heat keeps costs and energy use down, and salvaged doors and durable materials make this home long lasting, sustainable, and beautiful.
