If it’s not an award category, it should be. Working closely with the City Planner, we restored the original Shingle style features to this central Piedmont home, which had been remuddled in the 1950s.

The master bedroom gained a dormer window with a bay view, the newly attached two car garage connects with the new basement level, and excavated soil was used to level the backyard.

In addition, there are glassy smooth gunite retaining walls in the basement, the wildly slopey upper floors are level, so this was not by any means just a pretty facelift!

Less is More!
