The previous owners divided the home into multiple units, likely during the Great Depression. Without any original blueprints to fall back on, the SO Studio team had to put the pieces back together.
The ceiling in the entry features the home’s original lath boards.
The clients chose a cool gray exterior paint color and white trim to accentuate the home’s gingerbread detailing. Though it originally had a 270-degree wrap-around porch, they reduced the porch’s footprint to 180 degrees to add more living space.
