House Area: 1639 sq. ft. Basement Area: 1318 sq. ft.
Client’s Initial Customization Request
Flip the house horizontally so porch faces right side
Extend great room to accommodate for a kitchen island and dining table (we can get rid of the master bedroom patio and doors, smaller patio is better for our budget anyways)
Remove stove and chimney (we will get a propane built in and put the TV over the fireplace)
Create stairs instead of a ladder to loft (easier for pets to climb and us to walk up every day)
Add unfinished basement with a bathroom hookup
We can take the sink out of the mudroom and overall shrink the mudroom to perhaps put basement stairs (all we need is space for a washer and dryer, even if it’s just a closet)
Increase master suite by removing office space, add a walk in closet and bathroom
Play with siding options for home, more vinyl or a mix between some wood accents and black vinyl (trying to keep cost down)
