30th ave historic home
Counter Culture Studio presents our masterfully revitalized historic 1885 residence, where we have seamlessly integrated contemporary design with the home’s original charm. The full gut renovation transformed the once-dilapidated structure into a beacon of modern living. The first floor underwent a dramatic redesign, opening to natural light and fluid movement without compromising functionality. The entryway, previously a wide hallway, now unfolds into an open living room that invites both light and life. The repositioned bedroom, now at the heart of the home, serves as an ideal home office, reflecting the evolving needs of today’s homeowners.
The house’s metamorphosis is further exemplified by the thoughtful relocation of key spaces to enhance livability. The kitchen, reconfigured to be both welcoming and functional, stands as the centerpiece of the home’s communal experience. The laundry room’s ascent to the upper floor and the strategic removal of the bathroom from the kitchen area underscore Counter Culture Studio’s commitment to practical elegance. With modern finishes gracing every surface, this historic gem now offers a harmonious blend of past and present, catering to a lifestyle that values both heritage and innovation.
