Private Residence
867 Grove, Glencoe, Illinois

This entire home was renovated from the foundation up to the new roof form. A new master bedroom suite was added above the existing two-car garage and family room.

The homes new appearance draws on the American Shingle style, and is intended to harmonize with the scale of the surrounding homes. The expansive front porch sets the rhythm of the front elevation, visually balancing the garage doors.

Custom cherry and maple wood cabinetry is utilized in many areas of the home, including the kitchen, living room, master bedroom and master bath, creating a feeling of warmth and increased functionality.
