Columbia Charmer

The impetus for this project came one day when a colleague and I were touring office listings and we saw the sad state of this 1929 home. We both love remodeling and had batted around the idea of doing something together for some time so, when we saw this our eyes connected and we knew it needed to have new life breathed into it! 

Along with my husband Don, we did much of the work ourselves and it was a great experience getting into the bones of an older home and making strategic changes to make it function better. . We also reworked the basement to create usable space for a kid’s playroom as well as a laundry space that didn’t feel scary to use.

We completed the home in 2020 and managed to sell this home right at the start of the pandemic which was fortunate timing!
