Potomac Ave House
TYPE OF PROJECT: RENOVATION AND ADDITION
LOCATION: TAKOMA PARK, MD
Recognizing the untapped potential in a run-down single-story house nestled in a prime location, the owner embarked on a visionary journey to transform it into a coveted property for future sale. Aware that the absence of a garage and limited amenities might hinder its appeal to potential buyers, the owner enlisted the expertise of RT Studio to breathe new life into this real estate venture.
The transformation unfolded with the addition of a second floor, elevating both the stature and value of the property. A pivotal element in this metamorphosis is the striking central staircase, a design masterpiece that not only serves as a captivating focal point but also introduces a play of natural light, infusing the interior with a welcoming ambiance. This architectural feature stands as a testament to the meticulous attention to detail that defines the renovated house.
The quest for enhanced amenities continued with the creation of a spacious parking area capable of accommodating two cars, addressing a critical need for modern convenience. Simultaneously, a sleek and modern kitchen was installed, setting the stage for contemporary culinary experiences. The first floor underwent a thoughtful reconfiguration, opening up the space to create dynamic and stylish entertainment areas that seamlessly blend form and function.
The connection between indoor and outdoor living was amplified with the addition of a new deck, acting as a bridge to nature and expanding the living space into the outdoors. Complementing this, new balconies were strategically added, providing charming retreats for relaxation and leisure activities. These outdoor spaces not only enhance the overall livability of the property but also contribute to the allure of a well-rounded and inviting home.
A commitment to sustainability and a modern aesthetic is evident in the exterior makeover. The house underwent a complete update, featuring new siding and the integration of sustainable materials. This not only contributes to the property's eco-friendly footprint but also elevates its curb appeal, making a positive impression from the moment one approaches.
In conclusion, the owner's foresight in investing in this prime location was met with a transformative collaboration with RT Studio. The addition of a second floor, thoughtful amenities, and the infusion of contemporary design elements have turned a once overlooked property into a showcase of modern living. With its beautiful central staircase, modern kitchen, versatile entertainment spaces, and harmonious connection to the outdoors, this renovated house now stands as a testament to the seamless fusion of functionality, aesthetics, and market appeal.
