This historical house was originally built in 1890, had beautiful architectural details but had deteriorated over time and was no longer functional for the family. Working in collaboration with Shirley Meisels from MHouse Inc., we gutted the home down to the exterior walls and rebuilt it with a new two storey rear addition. The design retains the original character of the house and the new rear addition has a more eclectic modern vibe with expanses of glazing, clerestory windows and a bold mural for the new kitchen, dining room and mudroom. The third storey retreat is completely reconfigured with a spa inspired bathroom, vaulted ceilings and wood rich cabinetry.
