We loved working on this beautiful interior remodel in Olympus Cove! This remodel features a fully updated kitchen, powder bathroom, mudroom, laundry room, entry, living room, and multiple outdoor decks. The project focused on opening up the floor plan and improving the home’s overall functionality.
Our goal was to create a home that felt both beautiful and practical. The homeowners had already begun the process by removing a partition wall to open up their kitchen, but the rest of the main floor needed to be reconfigured and designed to better fit their lifestyle. The homeowners wanted a space for entertaining and everyday life. Scroll down to see the process of this remodel!
Before the remodel, the homeowners removed a partition wall between their dining room and kitchen. The home had a closed-off kitchen with a small island and dated finishes. The mudroom, laundry room, and powder bathroom had low ceilings and limited functionality due to the layout. The floors throughout the home were mismatched with uneven transitions. The exterior decks were narrow, outdated, and unsafe in some areas.
Our goal was to create a modern kitchen for entertaining. Some of the improvements we made are the following:
A partition wall separating the kitchen and dining area was removed to open up the space.
A new larger window was added to bring in natural light centered over the sink.
The kitchen features floating shelves, upper and under-cabinet lighting, and a built-in appliance garage.
Bocci outlets were installed in the tile backsplashes for a clean finish.
New hardwood flooring was installed throughout the space.
Seating was created around the kitchen island, as well as a large table for entertaining.
In the entry we added a new custom front door and beautiful new chandelier. During demolition, we discovered original terrazzo floors and stairs that had been covered with hardwood flooring. This was a wonderful surprise! We decided to carefully restore the terrazzo floor and stairs. This process involved extensive patching, grinding, adding new aggregate pieces, and finishing with epoxy. Not only was it fun to restore the home’s original entry floor and stairs, but the final product looks beautiful.
Every home and every remodel comes with discoveries. In older homes, we never know what we’ll find when the walls and floors are opened up. However, our team is always prepared to problem solve and find creative solutions for whatever we find. Whether it’s uncovering original terrazzo floors worth restoring, old vaulted ceilings that had been lowered, or addressing hidden structural challenges, each discovery is handled with care to ensure the best outcome for each project.
Seeing this project come together was incredibly rewarding. The collaboration between our team, the designer, and the homeowners made it possible to restore original details, improve functionality, and bring in modern design elements that fit the home’s style. The finished spaces feel cohesive, practical, and timeless.
