Style: 3-Story
Bedrooms: 3

  • A newly remodeled and updated historical house now has the space and amenities of a present day home.
  • This was accomplished by remodeling portions of the home, building two additions and making use of the previously inaccessible 715 sq. ft. of attic space.
  • A new master suite provides a retreat with bamboo floors and custom cabinets. The sitting area has an island that houses the stereo and flat screen TV lift, along with a sink, microwave and beverage center.
  • The bamboo theme was continued in the master bath by selecting a glass tile that has the look of grass cloth, an etched glass door, and a custom bamboo vanity. The European shower door and heated floor complete the room.
  • The new gourmet kitchen has furniture quality custom cabinets with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and range hood, a seating island and a convenient pot filler over the commercial grade range.
  • For better accessibility a laundry room was added on the second floor. Also, the two existing bathrooms were remodeled at that same time.
  • The exterior of the home was brought up-to-date with new landscaping, a large entertainment covered deck, a stone patio, shakes in the gable and a new front door.
  • The homeowner designed and built the cherry cabinets and bamboo vanities. He and his partner own a very prestigious design/custom cabinet and furniture company in the Tri-City area.

How Can You Add Living Space For About 1/3 Of The Cost?

  • We transformed this basement into usable living space by adding a bathroom, spacious living area and a beautiful wet bar area.
  • This transformation added over 1,400 sq. ft. of living area to this home for about a third of what it would have cost for an addition.
  • The two-panel arch top doors and oversized custom trim, finished to match the rest of the home, make it look like it was all built at the same time.
  • This project also has the Zietz Builder trademarks, bullnose drywall corners and 45° base corners.
  • The new lower level is divided up into three areas; the play area with lots of games, the relaxing area with a big TV and leather sectional and the bar area with its granite tops, seating for six and a beautiful slate floor. It is a “Must See” Parade home.
  • Large windows that are landscaped back on the outside, give the rooms a very nice look and brings in lots of natural sunlight.
  • The foundation walls have a spray foam applied for maximum insulation value, then a 2' x 4' stud wall is built, drywalled, painted and trimmed out for that livable finished look.
  • In most cases, the furnace, electrical panel, water supply and sewer do not need to be upgraded, all helping to save cost on the project.
  • We can drywall most ceilings or put a nice looking drop ceiling in so you have access to above the ceiling at a later date.
  • With the quality and care we take putting together your lower level, it makes it easy to heat and cool for your enjoyment.
  • There are many options when it comes to finishing your basement and turning it into your lower level, so please stop by to see me and let’s talk about your options.
