Much of the existing structure was rebuilt, especially at the back of the house, to allow for the weight of the new second floor. The master suite and kitchen are located in the back to focus the house’s orientation towards views of the ship canal. Well appointed finishes and fixtures were selected and period interior trim detailing were crafted to bring the home back to life after many well-used years as a rental property. Custom cherry shaker-style kitchen cabinets, leaded glass interior doors, traditional wood windows, and elegant tile work were but a few features of this remodel.
