About This Project

The Emerald Hill Farmhouse project, located in the charming town of Purcellville, VA, breathes new life into a historic farmhouse while preserving its original character. This renovation addressed the pressing need for more functional and spacious bathroom facilities for a family of four, transforming an existing bathroom and bedroom into an elegant owners' suite and creating an additional shared kids' and guest bath within a previously underutilized small bedroom. The design choices made for this project reflect a careful consideration of both aesthetics and practicality. In the owners' suite, the clients opted against expanding the footprint of the home, instead focusing on maximizing the existing space through thoughtful planning and the incorporation of custom-built features. This approach not only retained the farmhouse's charm but also allowed for a more efficient layout. The owners' bathroom underwent a transformation that preserved its original plumbing layout, minimizing renovation costs while enhancing functionality. A slight reconfiguration of the hallway, coupled with the selection of modern fixtures and materials, resulted in a bathroom that feels significantly larger and more inviting. Attention to detail was paramount; the low ceiling was elevated above the existing rafters, creating a sense of openness and allowing for a more sophisticated design. The use of high-quality materials, such as natural stone tiles and custom cabinetry, reflects the craftsmanship that defines the Emerald Hill Farmhouse. The outcome is a harmonious blend of historic charm and contemporary convenience, providing both comfort and style for the family. This project stands as a testament to the potential of thoughtful renovation, demonstrating how a sensitive approach to design can enhance the livability of a historic home while respecting its unique heritage. The Emerald Hill Farmhouse is now a beautifully functional space that meets the needs of its residents without compromising its storied past.
