Bob’s solution opens up the rear of the home and simplifies the plan by organizing the ground floor around a large open kitchen with direct connection to both a renovated family room and wrap-around screened porch and deck. A wet bar creates a transition between kitchen and dining room and a pass-through allows for service to the screened porch. A secondary entrance provides access via a mudroom and leads to a renovated playroom and laundry room.
Throughout, the scale of the new elements complements the existing home and neighborhood—a modern renovation that fits with the home’s existing context.
