Located in the heart of the Windsor Park neighborhood, this renovation and addition give new life to an existing mid-century home. Pollen reworked an existing 1,700 square foot plan to make more generous living spaces for clients who enjoy gardening, raising chickens, cooking and entertaining at home. Selective edits and a small addition made for a large transformation in the feel and functionality of the house. Removing the wall between the kitchen and living and adding a few feet to the front of the house make a combined kitchen/dining/living room with generous flow and light.  The new front facade uses dark brick and large windows to refresh the look of the house while keeping its mid-century appeal. New corner windows and an enlarged porch give wonderful views into the front yard and a stronger connection to the walkable street.  A carport was enclosed to add a main bedroom suite and a generous utility room.  In reworking the plan, a transitional space at the rear of the house was enlarged to make a comfortable den with large glass doors opening to the backyard.
