Introducing the Portofino Project

Hey everyone! It’s been a bit silent on the blog, I have been traveling for spring break and visiting New York and on top of all the projects we have, it’s been hard to get things up here.

BUT we are back and I wanted to introduce one of our newest projects, the Portofino Remodel. I thought it would be fun to show you the before photos and the floor plans so you can see what we are starting with.

We are making quite a few structural as well as esthetic changes, so it’s going to be a fun one to see come together! We have some big plans up our sleeve with this one.

The photo above is our inspiration for the family room… you’ll see what I’m talking about below 🙂

BEFORE PHOTOS:

 

As you walk in the front door, the ceiling is really low, so our plan is to take the ceiling up to the second level of the home.

We are going to convert the unused dining room into a kid’s work station by closing off the room and adding a functional barn door.

From this angle you can see where the wall and barn door will go off the main walkway.

The family room has great light, but we want to add a large sliding door into the backyard to show of their amazing yard!

Our biggest challenge right now is figuring out what to do with this endless wall! The ceiling never ends, ha! We plan to remove the niches and make this space way more functional and appealing.

We will take out the dining area and convert the laundry room that is just off the kitchen into a fun breakfast nook.

The master bedroom is downstairs – we can’t wait to get ahold of this bathroom.

Here is the upstairs of the home. We want to take this space and build in a theater room (you can see in the next two photos how chopped up the space is currently).

This is the upstairs bathroom that needs a little TLC.

For those of you who geek out over floor plans like us, you can see the current floor plan and then our proposed remodel below it! We can’t wait to show you progress shots along the way. Stay tuned!
