Interior character
Brick, stairs, and a fireplace wall
The exposed brick wall brings rustic character to the interior, balancing industrial texture with the home's contemporary finish language.
Refinished wooden stairs lead to the upper living spaces. In the main room, a black accent wall with a wood mantel and electric fireplace creates a warm focal point.
Kitchen renovation
A bright, open kitchen for everyday use
The open-concept kitchen uses white shaker cabinetry and a herringbone tile backsplash to keep the room bright and spacious.
A full suite of stainless-steel appliances and quartz countertops provide durable, practical surfaces for cooking and entertaining.
Primary bathroom
A spa-like retreat
The primary bathroom combines marble-inspired tile, a sleek gray vanity, a large mirror, and modern fixtures for a bright, spa-like space.
Outdoor living
A deck for entertaining and relaxation
A spacious deck extends the home outdoors, with room for shared meals, entertaining, and gathering around a fire pit on cooler evenings.
