A modern transformation

Brixham

What was once an unremarkable ranch became a warm and unique home that captured our client’s artistic spirit and modern sensibility. We built a two-story addition and upgraded the materials inside and out. We changed the floorplan to create an intuitive flow – shifting the focus away from the road and toward the southern view of rolling fields and woods, complete with a dining nook that looks out on a favorite tree.
