We purchased this home in late 2018 with a plan to renovate throughout the early winter of 2019 and into Spring. We wrestled with the idea of making a few small improvements and overall aesthetic updates, or taking it down to the studs, adding on, and making it an entirely new and updated space. Nevertheless, the latter option won.

The new primary suite hosts a bedroom, two adjoining closets, and a primary bathroom with a soaking tub, stand-up shower, and a custom vanity from our cabinet shop.
