The renovation that took place in 2016 was extensive. Plumbing, electrical, HVAC, insulation, some windows and both bathrooms and kitchen were fully remodeled. The intent; to install timeless, quality features that would last another 50 years (as the previous finishings did!). Living simply; focusing on the relationships and interactions that we each need, was top of mind when remodeling. More quality and less distraction – the owners felt they accomplished this quit well.
