This first floor addition and renovation project added an elegant new wing with laundry, mudroom and bath to this beautiful stucco home.
Although this beautiful Federal style home received a major facelift with the restoration of the side porch, new windows, siding, new rear deck and pergola, the most dramatic change occurred within. The first floor dining room, rear office and sunporch were opened up to form a greatroom, overlooking the magnificently landscaped rear yard.
This portfolio contains kitchens and bathrooms in a variety of styles, both as individual jobs and as a part of larger renovation projects.

A mudroom, half bath and laundry were also added and a bonus second floor walk-in bedroom closet was created below the addition […]
This addition was added above a ranch style home, creating a light filled, open space for the owner’s passion.
MGZ, as builder, collaborated with architect Robert Stein to create this challenging project. The existing house was situated on a long, narrow lot which required greater coordination and logistical attention than the average renovation. The construction was unusually extensive, requiring the owners to temporarily relocate to another home during part of the process. When they […]
A full second floor was added to what was originally a ranch style home, creating space for a growing family and accomplishing a complete exterior and interior transformation. MGZ had previously renovated the basement of this home and added a badly needed side entry and mudroom addition.
