Total Transformation:

From Frame To Finish In Upper Westside


The Narrative:

We recently completed an extensive, frame-to-finish whole-house remodel on Hilltop, effectively creating a brand-new home within the existing structure. This project went far beyond cosmetic updates, involving a complete reimagining of the floor plan and a full overhaul of the home's systems. The homeowner desired a modern, energy-efficient, and functionally optimized living space, and we delivered on every aspect.

Key elements of this transformative project included:

Relocated Entryway and Complete Floor Plan Redesign:  The original entryway was relocated to a more functional location, and the entire floor plan was redesigned to create a seamless, open-concept flow between the kitchen, dining, and living areas, maximizing space and connection. This involved significant structural changes, with all new framing to accommodate the desired layout.


New Electrical and Plumbing Systems Including Sewer Line: All electrical and plumbing systems were replaced, ensuring modern functionality and safety. This included the crucial replacement of the old Orangeburg sewer line with a new, durable line, guaranteeing long-term reliability.


Enhanced Energy Efficiency:  The entire house was spray foam insulated, dramatically improving energy efficiency and comfort. All exterior sheeting was replaced, and new board and batten siding was installed, further enhancing the home's thermal performance and weather resistance.


Relocated Kitchen and Bathrooms:  The kitchen was relocated to the north side of the house, featuring a stunning waterfall granite countertop, custom cabinetry, and high-end appliances, seamlessly integrating into the open-concept design. Bathrooms were reconfigured and relocated, creating luxurious and functional spaces, including a master suite with a walk-in, zero-entry shower, a freestanding soaking tub, and a floating vanity.


Sunroom Integration:  The former sunroom was seamlessly integrated into the main living area, further enhancing the open-concept flow and creating a bright, airy space.


Exterior Renovation:  The exterior received a complete makeover with new board and batten siding, sleek black soffits, new commercial-grade gutters, a redesigned entryway, a modern glass garage door, and a bold exterior lighting upgrade, significantly enhancing curb appeal, durability, and evening ambiance.


New Floors Throughout:  Brand new flooring was installed throughout the entire home, adding a cohesive and modern touch to every room.


Modern Living Area Focus: The living area, part of the new open concept design, was transformed with the installation of a giant linear fireplace and a recessed television, creating a stunning focal point and a perfect space for entertainment and relaxation.

The complexity of the project presented significant challenges, but our team's expertise ensured a successful outcome. The final result is a completely transformed home that offers modern comfort, enhanced functionality, and exceptional energy efficiency, all within a beautifully realized open-concept design. This project exemplifies our commitment to delivering the highest quality craftsmanship and creating truly bespoke living spaces.
