This full gut renovation transforms a two-family dwelling into a warm, modern single-family home, thoughtfully updated across three floors while honoring its historic charm. The reimagined layout includes expansive living spaces, a chef’s kitchen with a custom mudroom, and upgraded lighting throughout to enhance ambiance and functionality.
Upstairs, the second floor is reorganized to feature a serene main suite with a newly designed bathroom and walk-in closet, a refreshed secondary bath, and the addition of a laundry room. A new stair connects to the third floor, which houses a bright guest suite and two reconfigured bathrooms. The home now supports contemporary living with a two-zone hydro-air system, dedicated home offices, a gym, and a playroom. Exterior updates include restoring original shutters, railings, and trim, repointing the chimney, and breathing new life into the existing garage—carefully blending preservation with comfort and performance.
