About This Project

The Custom Historic Remodel is a masterful transformation that breathes new life into a nearly 140-year-old simple shingle style home, enhancing its historical charm while introducing modern functionality. The project focused on replacing an unsafe barn structure with a thoughtfully designed new garage, which includes a cozy living space above, a practical mudroom, and a spacious family room. Each element was meticulously crafted to honor the original architecture while ensuring the home meets contemporary standards of comfort and utility. The design choices reflect a careful consideration of the home’s historical context. The new garage complements the existing structure, utilizing materials that echo the original shingle style, including natural wood siding and period-appropriate trim details. The living space above the garage features large windows that not only provide ample natural light but also create a seamless connection with the surrounding landscape. Inside, the mudroom serves as an inviting transition space that combines functionality with aesthetic appeal, featuring custom cabinetry and durable finishes that withstand daily use. The family room, a focal point of the remodel, showcases exquisite craftsmanship with its vaulted ceilings and custom millwork. The use of high-quality materials throughout the project, such as reclaimed wood beams and energy-efficient windows, ensures both longevity and sustainability. The interior design harmonizes with the historical aspects of the home while incorporating modern conveniences, resulting in an inviting atmosphere that encourages family gatherings and relaxation. Ultimately, the Custom Historic Remodel successfully preserves the integrity of the original home while adding necessary living space and modern amenities. This project not only enhances the home’s value but also enriches the living experience, making it a perfect example of how thoughtful design can celebrate history while embracing the future.
