Preserving Charm

This busy family was expanding and needed space for kids and working from home. They love the neighborhood but couldn’t find a larger house that fit their needs. It was very important to them that the character of the 1946 vintage house was preserved and that the second-floor addition was cohesive with the first floor. They also wanted the exterior of the house to blend into the neighborhood which consists of houses primarily built in the 1940s. The charm of the house remains intact and includes the additional space and modern amenities it needed.
