Addition · Reunion, FL

Reunion second-floor addition

The homeowner needed a bedroom and a bath inside the height the house already had. Before, the house had a tall volume, a loft walk, and dated arches. We framed a bedroom, a bath, and a shower through that space and finished the living floor in herringbone wood. The arches came out. The stair follows the house that was already there.

Part of our additions & expansions work in Reunion.

Scope

Second floor inside an existing Reunion house.

Objective

Use the height the house already had, and make the new rooms look original.

Before

A tall empty volume, a loft walk, and dated arches. The height was there. The rooms still had to be drawn and built.

The result

A bedroom, a bath, and a shower framed through that volume. The arches came out. The living floor is herringbone wood. The stair follows the house that was already there.

Accessibility

The bath on this floor is part of the addition.

Materials

Herringbone wood, a new stair, and a roof line that follows the existing house.

Result

The empty height is a bedroom, a bath, and a living floor. The before photos are the loft and the arches. The during photos are the framing. The after is the herringbone floor and the finished rooms.
