MODEST MID-CENTURY REMODELING

ST. ANTHONY, MINNESOTA

Mid-century is the feel for this main floor overhaul that opened up a 1960’s rambler. A better flow to the main floor was created by connecting spaces through generous openings. This project is an excellent example of how modest changes can have a major impact on the livability of a house.

Exterior: Craftsman Construction Services

Interior: The Transformed Tree

The formal dining room was sacrificed to create a mudroom and built in pantry. The dining table found a new home in the generous living room. The kitchen peninsula was replaced by an island with seating at one end, making a better flow into the family room. A new opening into the living room created sight-lines and flow directly from the kitchen.

OF NOTE
  • No new space was added to the footprint of this house.
  • Hand crafted Dutch Delft Tiles line 3 of the 4 kitchen walls.
