From Cramped to Completely New: Inside a Full Three-Floor Gut Rehab Transformation
The Challenge: An Outdated, Closed-Off Layout
The original property at Chauncey Ave was a dated, deeply sectioned house that felt restrictive, dark, and entirely out of sync with modern living. The homeowner wanted to completely strip away the old, cramped layout across all three levels to build a cohesive, contemporary sanctuary. Their biggest pain point was the first floor, which was severely choked by an incredibly small, closed-off kitchen. They envisioned a complete structural gut-rehabilitation that would open up the entire floor plan, modernize the home's aging infrastructure, and maximize every square foot of usable space from the basement to the top floor.
The Transformation: A Complete Down-to-the-Studs Overhaul
To bring this massive vision to life, our team executed a comprehensive, down-to-the-studs overhaul. We stripped out the old drywall, replaced worn subfloors, and installed energy-efficient windows throughout the entire structure. To create the open-concept layout the homeowners dreamed of, we safely removed the restricting interior walls on the first floor. We then completely modernized the home's backbone, installing brand-new HVAC systems, all-new electrical wiring, and completely updated plumbing lines across all three floors. From handling the raw framing of the upper bedrooms to updating the unfinished lower level, our services covered the complete remodel of four custom bathrooms, a total kitchen expansion, and a fully finished basement.
The Result: A Luxury New-Build Feel
The final result is a magnificent, high-end transformation that looks and feels exactly like a luxury new-construction home. The newly opened first floor now boasts an expansive, light-filled layout that flows seamlessly into a stunning chef's kitchen anchored by a premium marble-veined waterfall island and custom cabinetry. The bedrooms have transitioned into peaceful retreats with crisp, clean lines, plush new carpeting, and flawless finishes. Furthermore, the four bathrooms were elevated into spa-like environments featuring custom tile work and sleek, modern fixtures, while the lower level was successfully converted into a pristine, comfortable living area, completing the journey to a beautifully finished basement.
