Teagno Construction Inc. - Current Projects

This 1970's ranch house underwent a major addition / renovation to breathe new life into the building to keep pace with the changing lives of the owners. To the second story was added a master bedroom, full bath, laundry room and office. The bedrooms, bathroom and living room on the first floor had some minor upgrades and repairs made. Most of the work on that floor focused on increasing the size, functionality and integration of the kitchen and dining room, which were the most heavily used rooms in the house. Throughout those rooms are a series of cherry accents found in the kitchen cabinets, the stairway and even the renovated hearth. The building was completely resided with a more traditional and classic cedar clapboard. A second story porch is situated to view the backyard and the woods beyond.

This second story addition was built to create a master bedroom suite and office upstairs and to take advantage of the views of the valley out the front and the finely planned and manicured yard to the back. The 1950s design had a very small and dark feel to the on the interior accentuated by the low ceilings. We opened up the living room of the house by creating a two story space utilizing the stairway and added light and air by topping the stairwell with an operable skylight. Another benefit to the layout was the added second story bookshelves outside of the new office. The bathroom was finished in a calming blue with matching glass tile accents throughout.
