A brief tour of this lovely farmhouse remodel by Barrett Home Renovations

Our customer enjoys collecting farm house relics and antiques and wanted to showcase these while incorporating their modern home layout. From floor to ceiling we recreated this home by putting in flooring throughout the home, and shiplap on the powder room walls, staircase accent wall and master bedroom ceiling. Although, we were going for a farm look we did not exclude state-of-the-art amenities like quartzite counter-tops. The open space leads guests easily around the first floor and then down to the basement where an in home gym is hidden behind modern barn sliding doors. Our favorite feature though has to be the built in cat door which is hidden in the corner of the basement so their furry friend can have easy access to their own space. We can happily say, this renovation turned our customer's house into a homestead!
