Project Description
Quietly tucked away on a lush, tree-lined street in the Gardens of Forest Hills, this landmarked single family home underwent a gut renovation. The updates addresses the challenges of creating a modern home within a 1930s Tudor-style stately home– respecting the details and character of the home while balancing the needs of a young family of four. The renovation cleaned up many of the past adhoc renovations, structural instabilities and incongruous finishes that had marked it’s last 80+ history. The existing narrow mudroom was replaced with large glass doors, opening up the once confined kitchen onto the expansive exterior bluestone patio. The kitchen was reconfigured and reoriented towards the rear yard and the large dining area. A refined palette of light, compatible materials and fixtures were provided throughout.
