Lincoln Park Gut Renovation- 2nd Floor
We were hired by a developer to do a gut renovation on this Lincoln Park three-flat. It was a foreclosure in terrible shape and needed to be completed gutted. By changing the floor plan, we were able to replace an illegal bedroom with a beautiful kitchen and add an additional bathroom. All of the original floors were rotting and old, so we replaced them all with oak flooring with a beautiful walnut stain- a cost conscious way to get a similar feel to walnut at a quarter of the price. We used beautiful white cabinetry to be fresh and bright. I placed laundry in the kitchen because there was no other place in the unit that could accommodate the plumbing, but separated it from the rest of the kitchen with an L shaped counter area so there was a work space dividing the food prep and laundry prep areas.
