COMPLETE GUT REHAB OF AN OLD COTTAGE WITH LARGE ADDITION

What started as a small cottage transformed into a timeless and warm home in the heart of Berwyn. The main section of the house was expanded on the rear of the property to include a larger kitchen, expanded living room, office and an additional bedroom. On the left side a two car garage with a master suite was added. The house features extensive use of exposed reclaimed beams, redwood accents, 8” white oak flooring, natural stone feature walls and Carrara gold marble. Upon entering your eye is drawn up to the vaulted ceilings with the large exposed support beams. There is a formal living room to your left complete with a fire place and the dining room is to the right. The new kitchen and family room is one large open space bathed in natural light from the new windows and doors on the rear of the house that open out to the rear patio and fire pit. The gourmet chef’s kitchen features a 10’ long Carrara gold marble topped island, Wolf and Sub zero appliances and a large Carrara gold backsplash above the range. Up the dramatic floating wide plank and cable staircase are two more bedrooms, a bathroom, a kid’s play nook, washer dryer room and the master suite complete with a private deck. The stunning master bath is polished and timeless with floor to ceiling Carrara marble tile, reclaimed sliding wood door and a walk-in closet. The basement is fully finished and features a full bar complete with 42” television, refrigerator, ice machine and beverage tap system. In addition to the bar is large TV viewing room, half bathroom and an additional storage room behind closed doors away from the beautifully finished space. The use of reclaimed beams and wood combined with more polished elements complete the rustic yet refined Chester County inspired aesthetic.
