A 1950โ€™s Ranch Reimagined

Before: From the street, it was classic 1950s: modest, boxy, untouched for decades. Inside? Even more of a time capsule. Low ceilings, dark rooms, shag carpet hiding who knows what, and not nearly enough space to live the way we do in the 21st century.

After: Still humble up front; total party in the back. The gut renovation added a soaring, light-filled rear wing, but preserved the homeโ€™s original footprint and its midcentury spirit. The new addition brings modern flow and drama, while the front keeps the understated charm typical of the neighborhood. Itโ€™s lagom in action: just the right amount of everything, with no square foot wasted and no character lost.
