This house which likely dates from the 1940’s, was in really

while updating it and adding to it to make it more comfortable for the
way the family lived.

Description:
As seen here, the kitchen has been relocated from one side
of the house to a space between the existing living room
and the new Family Room. The kitchen is completely new.
All the windows and doors were changed. A trellis was
added at the entrance along with a new Foyer, a new Office
and 5th
Bedroom. The old kitchen area became a bedroom.
Now the space is better organized.
