Kitchen, family room, master bedroom additions and general renovations to a center hall colonial residence. Design goals besides creating spaces this family of 5 needs was to take advantage of a very private back yard and create a dynamic series of outdoor spaces featuring a new deck with an outdoor fireplace, new dining terrace level and a new pool- radically changing both the functions and aesthetics of the rear yard.
First Floor plans below ( before and after) illustrate addition and renovation changes to plan to provide a much more adequate kitchen/ breakfast area open to a new family room. The formal living room was changed to the formal dining room adequate for formal dining and family events. Renovation of rear space was done to provide a small lavatory by the back door, a mudroom and a small private office.
