Opening Up a Character Home Creates Space for Family and Entertaining
A full house renovation brings a contemporary upgrade to this 1912 Fairfield home for a family of four while maintaining the stunning character of the original features and the turn-of-the-century style. Typically small rooms, including a galley kitchen and closed dining space, were opened up to accommodate the family and friends in the large kitchen with an island and dining table adjacent to the living room. Millwork, tiling, colours and surface choices throughout the kitchen and bathrooms honour the home’s vintage. The addition of an ensuite with a large soaker tub, a walk-in shower, and a walk-in closet for the primary bedroom modernizes the dated room.
