2025 Regional RotY Award Winner, Residential Historical Renovation/ Restoration $250,000 and Over

The restoration of this Victorian duplex required meticulous design and craftsmanship. Structural repairs included rebuilding brick facades, replacing the roof, and reinforcing bay windows. Interior updates balanced modern functionality with historic authenticity, adding master bedrooms and bathrooms, reimagining layouts, and restoring lost traditional features. Historic woodwork was salvaged or replicated, blending past and present seamlessly, preserving history and preventing demolition.
