Updated 1980’s Colonial

A 1980’s colonial, with solid bones, got a “polish” by adding custom, architectural details, and a newly remodeled kitchen.

Located in a premier neighborhood, the outdated interior of this home was not on par with it’s neighbors. While still a solid layout, the finishes, appliances and fixtures were stuck in the 80’s. The oak floors were refinished to eliminate the yellow patina and the walls got new wainscoting and a fresh palate of paint giving the first floor an upgrade.

Custom millwork was designed to surround the family room fireplace, adding much needed storage, and giving it a sophisticated facelift.

A complete kitchen remodel was at the heart of the project. Custom cabinets designed by Align Design and crafted by Woodways in Grand Rapids, MI, gave the owner the gourmet kitchen she was desiring. Azul Aran Granite gives the kitchen a luxurious touch.


“I really enjoyed working with Shawn on this kitchen remodel. I know the homeowner is thrilled with the outcome. Having Shawn on board saved the day. It changed the project from being average to being outstanding.

I am looking forward to working with Shawn again.” –JR W. , Project Contractor
