One home in particular is right around the corner from us and I often pass by it during my morning/evening walks. So, I just had to share some images of this fabulous place.
The original house was built more than 50 years ago. The remodel resulted in quite the transformation, and being more than curious over the last year as I watched the extensive construction taking place, I was so glad to see photos featured in our local paper’s "Home" section.
The family worked with local architect, Tim Winters, who specilizes in creating "new-old homes." He's well known for retaining a home's original character during a remodel. Or, when designing a new home, he's able to create something that looks like it's been there for many years, yet has the wonderful amenities that new homes offer.
Tim, if I win the lottery, I'm coming after you, buddy. Your life will be designing my home.
Happy Friday, friends!

Holy cow! That's one awesome house. There seriously wasn't one picture I didn't drool over.
Lexington is getting ready to have a similar tour and I'm thinking about going so I can drool (:
beautiful! Makes me want to make our old home "new"!!!
This is a welcome departure for standard remodeling. It will be especially nice once the shingles weather and the green growth matures.
Wow!
I like the scale of the home and the way it relates to the setting...great colours too.
