Mayberry

This beautiful 1875 home in Louisville, CO had suffered from years of poor remodels and deferred maintenance. It was time to bring it back to its full glory.

ABOUT THIS HOME

We started by taking the home down to the original studs and adding a new, level flooring system, since part of the floor had no foundation and was sitting directly on dirt. On the exterior, we carefully took down the original siding scallops one at a time. We removed nearly 150 years of paint from each one, then reinstalled them.

We also salvaged and reinstalled the original leaded glass windows. The result is a refreshed version of the historic Victorian home on the outside with an updated feel and function on the inside.

The new interior features a three-sided fireplace to add warmth to the living, dining, and kitchen areas all at once. Built-in cabinets throughout the home provide plenty of storage. We also converted the small cellar into a finished basement for additional living space.

Outside, we added a deck off the back of the home with overhead slats that can be adjusted to let the sun in – or keep it out. The new detached two-story garage pulls double duty with studio space upstairs. And, of course, we finished off the home with a traditional white picket fence.
