One of the most memorable projects from early on in my career involved a couple who had recently retired and who were looking to refresh their home. I consider their house a success story, on how careful planning, attention to detail, and collaboration can perfectly transform a vision into reality.
The homeowners approached me with the idea of applying stone to the front of their house. It’s common for clients to focus on one aspect of a renovation at a time, but I always recommend mapping out the entire vision for the home before diving into the first project. This helps avoid false steps, which can lead to redoing work unnecessarily and incurring additional costs.
For example, replacing windows before deciding on siding could result in having to redo the window cladding later. Similarly, installing new stone and a roof without considering future color and texture choices could limit design options down the road.
With this couple, we took the time to plan everything out together, and to my surprise, they made a bold decision — they wanted to do it all at once! This allowed us to ensure that every detail aligned perfectly, creating a cohesive and beautiful design.
This project involved applying stonework to the front of the house and changing the vinyl siding to the chimney to match. We added a new portico and railings to the entryway, enhancing the home’s curb appeal. The homeowners liked the look of the windows without shutters, so we left the trim as is.
To complete the transformation, we installed new roofing and gutters, and the finishing touch included new garage doors. Every element worked together seamlessly, resulting in a home that not only looked stunning but also felt like a reflection of the homeowners’ style and taste.
I am proud to say we still work with the same craftsmen who brought this design to life. Their skill and attention to detail were key to executing this project and I continue to rely on their expertise in my work today. Looking back on this project, I am proud of the aesthetic design and planning we accomplished, and the result is a home that stands the test of time.
