Charming Kitchen Remodel

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Our team loves sharing our finished work! The process of working closely with our clients throughout their home renovation project is an important one. Whether it be adding on an addition, remodeling a kitchen or bathroom, painting the garage or installing new windows, our team takes pride in ensuring every job is done with precision, detail and care.  Check out our latest finished project at a home in Norfolk, MA.

What we did:  The homeowners wanted to open up their kitchen to create a more inviting space. They also wanted to update the appearance, appliances and add more storage space.  Along with renovating the kitchen we also added on a mudroom and a small hallway office.

New & Improved Attic Space

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]We’re sharing a recent home renovation project our team completed for clients in Arlington this past summer.  The homeowners wanted to turn their attic space into a great office space that also served as a place visitors could comfortably stay in during the holidays.

We started by tearing out the existing wood paneling, carpet and tile;  allowing us to make the space open, cohesive and bright. The newly renovated space now includes 3 large closets,  4 dormers, and a beautiful full bathroom.  Check it out the before and after photos –

3 Ways To Add Value To Your Floor Plan

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Curious as to which home remodeling projects are the best if you’re looking for a solid return on investment?

Here are 3 fairly easy projects that will help ensure your home will be worth more come selling day!

1. Flex Rooms: First off what is it?! A Flex room is essentially a space that can be easily changed or used for a number of functions, also known as “several options within the same square footage.” One month it could be used as an office, and the next, it could be transformed into an elegant game room or spare bedroom (If you live in a smaller home, flex rooms can come in handy). Our favorite is The Guest-Friendly Living Room… Try incorporating a couch that doubles as a fold-out bed in your home office room, so you can create three different spaces as needed!

2. Mother-in-law Apartments: We know what you’re thinking…but these “accessory dwelling units” are perfect for extra space and rooms for additional family members. ADUs can either be attached to the original house, or detached, which may be an additional building outside. Converting a garage into a separate living space could cost as little as $40k, while building a detached structure tends to be more expensive, with costs that could be upwards of $150k.
Whether you’re housing an elderly relative, a recent grad, or out-of-town visitors, an accessory dwelling unit can be a real asset!

3. Upstairs Laundry Room: Time to stop lugging laundry up and down the stairs! An upstairs laundry room option is the perfect solution to get rid of smelly laundry baskets and hampers in your bedrooms. Being able to put your dirty clothes quickly in the washing machine is a HUGE plus, and besides, now there’s more room for storage in the basement. This additional room doesn’t need to be big and sometimes it can even be paired with a half bathroom.
