Two-story Home Addition

We just wrapped up this brand new home addition in Arlington, and we love how it came out. We took the home from one-story to two-stories, and it’s genuinely unrecognizable when looking at the before photo. The homeowners just moved in last week and are thrilled to be in their NEW and IMPROVED space.

By adding a second floor and remodeling the entire first floor, we could add two big bedrooms, a master suite, a laundry room, a walk-in closet, an additional bathroom, and lots of storage space. We also were able to expand the living area and build a brand new kitchen! The new space is super functional, with space for their growing family to spread out.

Check out just how impressive this project is –

The construction took just under six months and stayed on-budget. Our team worked  Here are some photos during the beginning phases of construction. Check out the progress pics during the construction of the home.

Here is the final outcome of this beautiful home remodel in Arlington, MA.

Spacious Garage Addition

This home addition will make a HUGE difference in the lives of the homeowners. Not only will they have a two-car garage but they will have a big living room and a master bedroom. The location of the home required us to remove and excavate the existing cement wall and ground.

Construction Plans: See below to view the construction plans. This is a very important step to the process of any home addition, remodel, or project. It helps us and our clients understand the final outcome. As you can see, the additional space will allow for a gorgeous new living room, master bedroom with bathroom and garage.

Before:

During: The construction began with the removal of the retaining wall in front of the home. Once our team removed it we were able to access to the land to build the garage foundation.

This is on an on-going project. We look forward to sharing the final outcome once completed. Follow us on Instagram for updates!

Brand New In-Law Attic Suite

Our team has been working on this in-law attic suite for some time, and it’s so exciting to see the finished product. The homeowners wanted to utilize their attic space better and decided to build an in-law suite that included two bedrooms, one bath, a spacious living room, a kitchenette, and even a laundry nook.

By installing skylights, we brightened the space beautifully. We also used light-toned paints, hardwood floors, and detailed trim work to create an attic oasis to be loved for years and years to come. The homeowners also did a great job of decorating the space, so it’s comfy yet sophisticated.

Before you preview the final work, watch this video as James takes us through a tour during the construction phase –

 

Check out all the final photos! Thanks to the homeowners for sharing these with us.
