Create a more functional space incorporating current amenities but in a style that is appropriate for this historic home. The remodel needed to include a new second bathroom and a laundry room off the kitchen and access to the main plumbing pipe which ran through the corner of the kitchen from the second floor.

Maintaining historic integrity was of great importance to the home owner.
