The beautiful façade of this historic home was retained while modernizing the structure itself to double its original size. Most of the home was rebuilt but a major consideration of this project was ensuring that façade upgrades were carried out by experienced woodworkers who could create a contemporary look while retaining a reverence to the home’s heritage. The finished project included distinctly modern architectural features, floor to ceiling windows, and creative inclusion of unique and differentiated living areas within the length of the home.
