Here's a quick look at Home #10 of the 2024 Tour of Remodeled Homes by Alair Homes! ⁠
⁠
This project involved a comprehensive exterior renovation and a four-seasons addition, modernizing a traditional farmhouse/craftsman home. The exterior features three types of siding: corrugated steel, New TechWood, and James Hardie smooth panels. Key updates include a new front deck, pergola, gable-covered entry, front elevation windows, front door, exterior lighting, and refreshed landscaping. The transformation significantly enhances the homes curb appeal while maintaining its charm. The four-seasons addition floods the space with natural light and provides extra room for a hobby sewing area, meeting the clients’ specific needs. This renovation seamlessly blends modern aesthetics with the home’s original character, delivering both functionality and beauty.⁠

Get a look at Home #9 by Zenith Design + Build! ⁠
⁠
This main level remodel introduces an open-concept layout featuring modern finishes that breathe new life into the living spaces. A spacious, state-of-the-art kitchen becomes the heart of the home, boasting top-tier appliances and a stylish central island. Upstairs, the bathroom undergoes a luxurious makeover: with fun accent tile, a clawfoot tub and smart storage solutions that combine elegance with practicality. Meanwhile, the exterior undergoes a dramatic face-lift, including a new front porch, fresh landscaping and a mixture of new cedar shakes and LP siding. The modern garage addition contrasts with the traditional Dutch Colonial house, offering a distinct aesthetic. The remodel featured updated finishes throughout while preserving the existing structure, maintaining its architectural integrity.⁠

Take a closer look a home #8 from the 2024 Tour of Remodeled Homes built by Grand Homes & Renovations! ⁠
⁠
This project started as a kitchen renovation with the need to remove the wall that separates the beautiful dining room and kitchen. The 90’s kitchen remodel was the first to be removed, then we could evaluate removing the major wall. Using a large beam, we were able to expand the opening allowing for a better flow for this family of four. Continuing to match the existing millwork, we re-built part of the large wainscot wall adding a matching trimmed arch on the other opening. The oak floor was then matched, and new flooring was added. Once again, a seamless transition by Barnum Floors. Quartzite tops and custom painted cabinets with walnut island complete this timeless and unique transition. Working for the owners now three times, we couldn’t be more excited to show off their beautiful style and how elegant and yet functional their space is.⁠

It's time to get a closer look at Homes #6 & #7 both remodeled by Silent Rivers Design Build! ⁠
⁠
#6- To reflect the style of its new homeowners, this cramped and dim area now exudes spaciousness. Removing the dining room wall allowed for a seamless flow between spaces. The focal point of the redesign is the uninterrupted island, offering both ample workspace and seating. A touch of bespoke charm was added with a custom plate rack, occupying the space where a doorway once stood. A dedicated baking center was integrated into the layout, complete with a beverage fridge and mixer stand. A towering pantry cabinet transformed an otherwise overlooked corner into spacious storage. Architectural adjustments, including the new doorway, transom, and widened sunroom opening, were strategically arranged to enhance the visual connectivity from the front of the house to the backyard. The simple and unfussy color palette and custom millwork details evoke the cozy charm of an English Cottage – fulfilling the client’s vision of a warm and welcoming home.⁠
⁠
#7 - This client came to us requesting an update to their white 90’s kitchen on a tight budget wanting a bold aesthetic and improved functionality. Maintaining the basic floorplan we relocated the range to open up the island for prep and entertaining. The island now seats three and features a beverage center. To increase storage, we brought one wall of cabinets down to the countertop and replaced cabinetry on the north wall with a shallow walk-in pantry featuring walnut doors, open shelves, and decorative shelf brackets. We used black walls and cabinets to highlight the champagne bronze hardware and white paradise granite countertops. Contrasting white cabinetry on the island and walnut accents finish the look. Other unique features include a small drop zone and a hall tree at the entrance of the kitchen to keep clutter out while providing guests a location to place their belongings when arriving.⁠

Here's a closer look at Home #5 of the 2024 Tour of Remodeled Homes by Compelling Homes! ⁠
⁠
When we first walked through the front door of this home, we knew it was special. The layout, the volume, the “feel and bones” were, and are, special, but the finish elements fell short of the needs of the homeowner. This home received a massive makeover as the entire main floor was massaged and realigned with the sophisticated nature of the Visionary Maven who calls this dwelling home. We were given carte blanche to reconcile the kitchen, living room, hearth room, powder, primary suite, dressing room and laundry room so as to create a space that’s comfortable, yet sharp. An intriguing aspect of this project is that we removed minuscule amounts of interior framing that had a massive impact on the layout of the furniture. This is one where you want to look for the details. Come see a home where a bio ethanol fireplace isn’t such a contrast to the floating waterfalled granite surfaces.⁠
Welcome Home.⁠

Here's a quick look at Home #3 of the 2024 Tour of Remodeled Homes remodeled by Design2Build. ⁠
⁠
This home has been transformed from a dated and dark space into a bright, modern sanctuary. The once heavy stone fireplace has been replaced with sleek, soft black tile, creating a contemporary focal point. Uneven spaces next to the fireplace are now cohesive with natural wood tone display shelving. The stair railing, previously adorned with outdated scrollwork, and the old carpet and tile have been replaced with light, functional luxury vinyl plank (LVP) flooring, enhancing the home’s flow. In the kitchen, the layout has been reimagined with new cabinets, a removed corner pantry, a new island, and state-of-the-art appliances. An old closet is now a breakfast cubby for coffee and toast. Updated lighting throughout the home brightens every room. The former dining room, with dated arches, is now an elegant entertaining area for quiet cocktail nights. The primary bath has been revamped with new finishes and a striking accent wall. Every element of the remodel creates a cohesive, stylish, and functional living space.⁠
