Historic Renovation Remodeling

Milwaukee Historic RemodelingThe living room area of the homeowner's bungalow lacked the warm details that are found in the rest of the house. The client requested to add a gas fireplace with built in storage and to open up the room to the entrance foyer.

We custom designed an oak fireplace mantel along with custom-built lighted cabinets on both sides for the homeowners to highlight their collections. Milwaukee Historic RemodelingThe hand made tile selected for the fireplace surround is true to the style of the home. The existing windows were reframed to match the new mantel. New owner selected antique leaded glass windows were also installed. The original painted crown molding was replaced to give the room a finished look.

Milwaukee Historic RemodelingWe also opened up the living room by creating a new larger opening to the foyer and installing new true divided light French doors. The relocation of an existing foyer closet and new tile has completed the transformation of this 1920's bungalow.

Milwaukee Historic RemodelingThe room is now a warm and inviting gathering space for the family. Because of the seamless design, all of these additions look like they are original to the house.
