Before

Ranch Rambler style house before the exterior makeover. The landscaping includes two trees in the front, green grass, and various hedges closer to the house. The red brick house includes a two-car garage with a wide driveway in front and a covered front porch.

This Millcreek home underwent an extensive remodel. On the main level, we updated the kitchen by creating an open concept layout to the dining and living rooms, adding a peninsula for additional seating, and expanding the existing kitchen into the breakfast nook for more prep and storage space. We then created a primary suite by combining the existing bedroom with the office. This gave us room for a large primary bedroom, walk-in closet, and bathroom. In the basement, we relocated the laundry into the storage room and converted the existing laundry and office into two new bedrooms. Now this home offers a functional layout and updated design!
