First Story Remodel In Chester, NH

This first story remodel in #ChesterNH is the epitome of a clean, bright aesthetic through a minimalist approach, which we absolutely love! With an emphasis on natural lighting, the homeowner can enjoy outdoor views from the comforts of home. To make this happen, we reconfigured walls and openings of the home to achieve an optimal flow from one living space to another.

In the kitchen, we installed a new wall of windows to optimize views of the backyard pool area, allowing tons of natural light to flow inside. By expanding the pantry closet and replacing the bifold pantry doors with oversized shaker style doors, the space now blends seamlessly with the cabinetry design, allowing maximum storage and minimal countertop clutter. The new beverage area is one of the homeowners favorite features, incorporating functionality and beauty with the gorgeous glossy tile backsplash, glass cabinet doors, and accent lighting.

Additional features include herringbone pattern floor tile in the laundry and bath, as well as the wide plank oak hardwood throughout the remainder of the home.

Of course, the new front entry door cannot be missed. Visitors will now be greeted by an elegant, ProVia French entry door. Stunning!

 

 

 


 

Windham, NH Finished Basement

A basement remodeled with purpose. This renovation may not appear like the same space, but it certainly is.  Plenty of great features boost functionality for everyone to enjoy. Let’s take you through it!

This finished basement added square footage to the home without having to extend the existing footprint. This is a budget friendly way to increase the usable area of any home.  By completely altering the floor plan, we were able to make the best use of the available 500 square feet.

Prior to this renovation, the beautiful backyard and in-ground pool were not directly accessible from the basement. A newly installed patio slider takes the place of an existing window, providing direct access to the backyard, in-ground pool, and play area.

More features: Guests using the pool can now take advantage of a brand-new ½ bath. Drenched little ones can change comfortably without having to head up to the main level of the home.  Waterproof luxury vinyl plank flooring is softer on bare wet feet and eliminates the worry of slippery tile or damp basement carpets.

A wet bar with quartz countertop is now the perfect place to grab appetizers or a beverage for the pool. Just add a blender and a countertop ice maker! Everything you require for a great day with guests is at your fingertips!

 

 


 

Windham NH Finished Basement

For many homeowners with an unfinished basement, it’s a dream to turn that space into a usable living area. When we discuss intentions with our clients, their ideas range from accessory dwelling units, to gyms, laundry rooms, play areas, offices, and more.

Planning is always an exciting part of the process. For this home in #WindhamNH, the ideal lower level space would primarily be used for long term guests. This transformation included an 800 sq. foot 2 story addition, new mudroom, laundry room, playroom, bathroom, family room, and kitchenette—with comfort at top of mind.

The upgrades don’t stop there! The exterior received quite a bit of attention. Our team installed new siding with PVC trim, replacement windows throughout in black, a gorgeous ProVia entry door, and new overhead garage doors.

 

 


 

Family Lake Home Accessory Dwelling Unit Remodel

This lake home’s accessory dwelling unit received a complete update. This space has been refreshed, remodeled, and ready to be enjoyed by the next generation of family members.

The lake views are gorgeous, and we wanted this space to experience the beauty of the water. One small bedroom was relocated to open up the lake side of the home for optimal views and light.

As you may catch in the before and after photos, the bath was expanded to include a laundry closet. Tiling was installed in the shower and on an accent wall. We love the added texture tiles bring to the space (and they’re easy to clean too)!

We can’t forget about the kitchen! The kitchen was completely renovated from top to bottom. Quartz countertops, tile backsplash, and all-new flooring graces the space. The under cabinet lighting elevates the entire look.

Throughout the space, all-new flooring, trim, entry doors and windows were installed. Plus, fresh coats of paint on all existing walls.

 

 


 

Lakehouse Kitchen Remodel

With the lake being such a beautiful setting for this home, we wanted to ensure the homeowner could enjoy the view from all remodeled spaces. The dividing wall between the limiting, former galley kitchen and family room was removed to accomplish this.

In the kitchen, new cabinetry and granite countertops were installed with gorgeous glass tile backsplash in Glacier Gloss Horizon Blue to compliment the new cabinetry colors.

The reallocation of all appliances was a strategic choice, allowing the homeowner to utilize their new space, enjoy the outdoor scenery, and entertain guests as the are seated at the flanking island.

You’ll notice crown molding and custom woodwork columns on either side of the island. A bold but rewarding decision that gave a sense of separation of the two areas, while maintaining the open concept design. All existing hardwood floors were also refinished and fresh paint coated the walls throughout.

A stunning transformation for this home with quite the view! Please take a look through the before and after photos of this project.

Vintage Bathroom Remodel of a 1920s Home

This bathroom had a ton of character, but the homeowner was feeling not so pretty in pink! Our team gutted the bath to studs, removed all wall and floor tile, as well as re-framed for a larger walk-in shower.

Walls and ceilings received all-new plaster. For the floor, penny tile was installed in the bath and shower. The shower also received a beautiful marble threshold, soft white beveled subway tile with light gray grout, and a custom frameless shower glass door with chrome hardware.

Can’t forget the small details! Vintage style plumbing fixtures, vintage style electrical fixtures, and new window trim and baseboard to match the existing home’s trim profiles also made their marks in this remodel. We also were able to preserve the original radiator cover (per the owner’s request), vapor honed and repainted to match the existing trim color.
