The exterior, facing the park, remained largely the same. We made the back roof taller and also increased the size of the dormer in that roof. This, plus a gigantic addition towards the back, gave us all the space we wanted (4300 sf) while maintaining that original old-world charm.
This photo is looking towards the kitchen from the informal living space, through the informal dining room. We matched the mahogany color of the existing doors and trim in the house with the new millwork. White oak, original to the house, was also matched in the addition. This dining room is designed to comfortably seat 14 for dinner.
This photo is looking from the kitchen to the informal dining and living spaces. The owners host family and friends often, so a large informal space for friends and children was needed. This 'informal' space is located at the back (south) side of the house.
