The Hat Trick House

This is the 3rd house in a row we’ve done in Mahncke Park this year. This house was vacant and owned by out-of-state heirs to an estate…another non-MLS purchase for us. After the success of our last project, The Craftsman Bungalow, we are excited to take this charming house to the next level. We’ve totally redesigned the floor plan on the house by opening walls, moving doors, deleting rooms, creating hallways, laundry room and adding a 435 square foot addition to the back. We are taking this 1450 square foot 2/1 and turning it into an 1885 s.f. 3/2. All the essentials of the home will also be replaced including complete electrical wiring, roof, foundation, central air and plumbing. The original wood floors will remain and be refinished although we’ll have to patch in new areas as needed after moving load bearing interior walls. We’ll take extra care to preserve the exterior historic look while updating the inside to today’s most discriminating standards. This remodel will take us over 3 months to complete and we’ll be finished just in time to hit the Spring ‘09 selling season perfectly on time.
