As a Design Build team, Andy and I are particularly excited about the new trends because we’ve been building these options into existing homes for nearly 20 years! We routinely transform outdated and unused rooms into livable spaces that accommodate a family’s new lifestyle.
We love hearth rooms off the kitchen that provide cozy spaces for homework, gatherings, etc. with easy access to the kitchen.
Outdoor living spaces are one of our specialties! Adding a sunroom adds valuable real estate to an existing home.
Window walls add drama and are energy efficient with today’s dual pane Energy Star rated windows.
Bonus Rooms (regardless of location) are some of the most flexible rooms in a home as they can serve children’s needs for homework and play space and then easily convert to home office, additional bedrooms, wine rooms and more as life changes!
And theater rooms are easily achieved by converting a bedroom, modifying an outdated basement recreation room, or building an add-on space to your existing floor plan.
Sound like more than the average do-it-yourself project? You’re right – it is! But with an experienced and talented design build team; you can dramatically change your 20-year-old home from an outdated, dysfunctional space to a more livable, more functional, and more comfortable living environment.
