Extreme Makeover on this Bungalow…
This bungalow was sold at lot value as a teardown and she was well on her way to being bulldozed before the HVH crew showed up on the scene… After years of being vacant and numerous years of deferred maintenance we have to agree that we she was in pretty rough shape…
We knew we were in for a challenge but there was so much potential… this area of inner city Houston was in the early stages of resurgence with gentrification and development occurring all around it. We felt that we could positively impact the area by doing this home justice especially with it being located a nice sized corner lot, across the street from the neighborhood park and on one of the high traffic streets in the area!
The design theme was to maintain the historical design elements from the area while upgrading all the creature comforts and enhancements todays savvy homebuyer requires in a home…
Well here is the end result…
What do you think…
This home was met by much fanfare and was immediately under contract with multiple offers! Was it the reclaimed Red Oak hardwood floors, the reclaimed Barn Door or the gourmet kitchen featuring custom shaker cabinets accented with granite countertops!
The most exciting feature in this home that gets lost in these photos is the custom hand-milled crown molding trim! Every inch of trim in this home was hand-milled onsite by our trim carpenter and it adds a touch that you simply can’t appreciate until you have seen it in person!
It was truly a pleasure for the HVH team to identify, design and sell this bungalow for our client.
