We’re in the process of wrapping up a large-scale makeover on this sunny condominium in Philadelphia’s charming Old City neighborhood. The homeowners, who have lived here for at least 15 years, recently retired and wanted to make some upgrades as they begin the next phase of their lives. Because the condo was built in the 1980s, some of the elements — particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms — were feeling dated to our clients.
- Paint throughout the entire unit
- Cherry-colored maple cabinets
- GE appliances
- Stone style ceramic tile flooring in the kitchen and entry, which will keep these high-traffic areas easy to clean
- Cherry floating engineered flooring throughout the bedrooms and main rooms
- Bathroom vanities, sinks, toilets, granite counters, and new chrome fixtures and accessories
- New lighting layout, including attractive ceiling fans for the larger rooms
- Closet organization systems
Now that these larger pieces of the project are complete, Tamara will work with the clients on choosing the proper window treatments for their 8′ tall windows. Not only do the windows let in a tremendous amount of light due to southern exposure, but they also make the condo feel drafty.
It was gratifying to be able to help these folks head into retirement in their newly styled and redefined space.
