1954 Hillwood Home Remodel

This 1954 home was redesigned for its 21st-century family. An open-concept floor plan with modern amenities guided this first-floor remodel. It includes an expanded kitchen featuring a cook top peninsula and bar seating. French doors open to a newly expanded outdoor living space and Trex deck. The main bathroom was transformed to include storage space and modernized amenities to appease each family member. We loved working with this local Shoreline family and are so glad that they’re happy with the results!

Nip Tuck Remodeling

Woodinville Dream Come True

Rendering—Home Under Construction

web - Nip Tuck -Simpson before.jpg

Once a dated rambler has now become a client's dream home. The client wanted their living space to be more connected to the backyard and allow for more comfortable entertaining. By removing walls, vaulting the kitchen ceiling, and adding doors and windows this multi-function space was created. Stretching into all three bedrooms with new flooring, trim, doors, and paint this home has been transformed. The use of warm colors, and mixing of transitional styling with some traditional details makes this home a client dream come true.

Get a sneak peek of current progress on this new outdoor living area

Our home owners love the rugged beauty of “timber framing” and wanted an outdoor living area that would reflect that architectural style. The completed two-story structure enhances their view of the forest behind their home and a spiral staircase connects the upstairs master bedroom to the deck.

Practical elegance best describes the extensive remodel of this Edmonds home overlooking Puget Sound and the Olympic mountains. 

Rainier Custom Homes: Seattle

This 90-year-old classic craftsman in Seattle endured three iterations of kitchens before RCH partnered with the current, long-time owners on a design that conveys and matches older eras.

Gaspar's Construction: Green Lake

Expanded bedrooms, an enlarged kitchen, and a revamped front room opened up both the view and appeal of this almost-brand-new Tudor home. 

CRD Design Build

With two growing kids, this Seattle family was rapidly outgrowing their home. Previous clients, they came back to CRD to design a second-story addition and a whole-house remodel.

Irons Brothers Construction

This 1917 Woodland Park Classic received the royal treatment, enlarging the kitchen, adding a new back deck, and transforming the master bathroom and bedroom.

Pathway Design & Construction

This lovely 1912 Craftsman home, with shingle siding and original fir floors, needed a lot of love. Tearing it down and starting over was appealing, but reviving the home's long-forgotten character ultimately won out. 

Harjo Construction

A 1928 pre-war home in Ballard gained three times the living space of the outdated addition it replaced, plus a flood of new light from double-hung wood windows.

Potter Construction

A transformation of both the exterior and interior improved accessibility, space, and natural light via the new open (but still cozy) floor plan.

Mighty House Construction

This project included removing a wall that separated the kitchen and living spaces, reworking the kitchen layout to add an island and improved functionality, and updating finishes with sensible and sustainable solutions

Sitting Deck

 Integrated with the existing roof is a new deck surface designed for enjoying morning tea.

Laundry Room

Lighter and brighter with improved storage and functionality. 

Exercise Room

Schulte Construction

Our clients purchased this West Seattle home with the intention to formalize a grand entertaining space on the entire first floor. We brought the space down to the studs and reconfigured the dining, living and kitchen to take advantage of the amazing island view. This included new windows and french doors that open up to a new deck that faces the view. New hardwood floors were installed, creating a cohesive look throughout. The kitchen is chef-worthy and has all new cabinets with ample storage, along with built-in benches. The master suite includes walk-in closets, updated bath and shower, along with a double vanity.

The results are beautiful and the clients are thrilled.

Irons Brothers Construction: Ballard

A 1941 Ballard classic with tons of potential has been fully renovated for a loyal Seattleite. The whole home was remodeled from the inside out. 

The refresh begins on the main floor; an expanded kitchen and revised master bathroom and bedrooms exist with the original architectural details intact, creating visual balance. A widened stairway leads downstairs to a newly reconstructed basement. 

Comprehensive enhancements include earthquake retrofitting. The modernized exterior wows with new siding and windows, a revamped entry with a bay window, and covered stairway. A brand new deck serves as an observation and entertainment area overlooking the yard. The new driveway, garage door, and walkways complete the look. 

This remodel was inspired by and created for a wonderful homeowner who will enjoy this space and the neighborhood for years to come.
