Keeping within the original footprint, the cased openings between the living room and dining room were widened to create better flow. Low built-in bookshelves were added below the windows in the living room, as well as full-height bookshelves in the dining room, both purposely matched to fit the home’s original 1920’s architecture. The wood flooring was matched and re-finished throughout the home to seamlessly blend the rooms and make the space look larger. In addition to the interior remodel, the home’s exterior received a new facelift with a fresh coat of paint and repairs to the existing siding.
