Transforming a Builder-Grade Home into a Masterpiece Custom Home

The Problem

Functional home but needed improvements in the kitchen, laundry, basement, and bathrooms.

The homeowners envisioned a residence with a fresh and timeless appeal, blending modern functionality with classic aesthetics. They desired a home that would cater to their present lifestyle and remain relevant and stylish for years to come. However, their existing home fell short in several key areas:

• The kitchen, laundry room, and basement needed better functionality and aesthetics.
• The primary bathroom and accompanying closet lacked efficiency and storage for the homeowners’ needs.
• The family bathroom felt cramped and outdated.

Renovation Challenges

Scheduling summer renovations to minimize disruption and ensured aesthetic cohesion across the phased projects.

Balancing renovations with the daily life of a busy family was a significant challenge. With children at home and a busy household routine, it was crucial to plan the projects to allow the family to maintain a sense of normalcy. Meadowlark Design+Build strategically scheduled significant portions of the work during the summer when the children were away at camp, minimizing the impact on their day-to-day activities and ensuring a smoother renovation process.

Another challenge was maintaining aesthetic cohesion across the phased home renovation. Each project needed to blend seamlessly with the previous and upcoming ones to ensure consistency in design and functionality. The Meadowlark design team leveraged its extensive network of suppliers and vendors to source the best materials, ensuring each renovation element met the homeowners’ standards and expectations.

The Solution

Updated the kitchen, laundry, basement, primary bathroom, and family bathroom in phases to enhance functionality and aesthetics.

Meadowlark Design+Build worked closely with the family to outline specific goals for each renovation phase. The first project focused on updating the kitchen, laundry room, and basement to function better and be more aesthetically pleasing. The second project reconfigured the primary bathroom and closet to serve the homeowners' needs better. The third project upgraded the family bathroom to feel more open and modern. Each phase was meticulously planned and executed, ensuring minimal disruption and maximum satisfaction.

The Results

Transformed the home with top-tier renovations.

After multiple phases and lots of top-tier work, the homeowners were delighted with the transformation of their home. Meadowlark Design+Build completed three major renovation projects, each carefully planned and executed to maintain the home's fresh, functional, and timeless appeal.

Kitchen, Laundry Room, and Basement: A new front door and windows gave the exterior a fresh look, while the dark-stained floors and remodeled fireplace added a touch of elegance to the main level. The improved trim and details, along with the reconfigured basement, created a more cohesive and functional living space.

Primary Bathroom and Closet: The reconfigured bathroom now boasts a spacious shower, a more practical vanity, and a built-in linen closet, making the space more efficient and aesthetically pleasing. The customized closet solutions provided ample storage and organization, perfectly meeting the homeowners' needs.

Family Bathroom: Removing the tall wall between the vanity and toilet opened up the space, allowing natural light to flow through. The upgraded storage in the vanity and modern fixtures and finishes completed the look, ensuring the bathroom matched the rest of the home's high standards.

These renovations fulfilled the homeowners' aesthetic and functional desires and significantly enhanced the value and enjoyment of their property. The whole family is thrilled with their beautifully transformed home and looks forward to enjoying their custom masterpiece for many years.
