Vista
The oldest part of this home in the Western Run Valley harkens back to 1807. It had two major additions, one in the 1950s the other in 2007.

Sanctuary
A beautiful older home in a distinguished historic neighborhood has many lovely qualities, but a kitchen with room for seating, a mudroom or a modern master bath are all unlikely.

Cozy
The owner of this lovely north Baltimore home loved the site, views and the yard, but was frustrated with the home’s chopped up spaces and lack of natural light, particularly in the kitchen.

Finesse
This beautiful historical house, originally built in the 1920s, desperately needed to be brought into the new century and current decade without losing the charm and finesse of its original details.

Respite
The kitchen has become the hub of family life, yet too often homeowners face the same reality as this client – a beautiful, historic home with an obsolete, cramped kitchen built for the needs of a bygone era.

Tower
Our population is living longer. With that comes a need to recreate homes so the residents can age in place, which is exactly what these clients were hoping to do when they asked for a three level elevator and wheelchair accessible deck to be added to their home. This is a historic home with many complex rooflines located on a steep site; there was a concern that the elevator addition could disrupt the look of the home if not handled properly.

Casa
Italian clients who both love to cook wanted to convert a dark, cramped kitchen into a modern, light-filled space with views overlooking the garden in their historic neighborhood. The renovation would also add a bluestone terrace with eating area and fire pit. Standing between dream and reality was a thick stone exterior wall and a poorly located powder room.

Light
What many historic homes have in architectural character they often lack in flow between rooms. Like many other older homes, this historic stone house featured a kitchen intended for life with servants, not life with a modern family.
