The new owners of this historic Bayside house retained the character of the exterior of the house while completing a very modern interior renovation. The house was selected as it is perfectly sited and arranged for the side enclosed porch to become the music room where the new owner will give piano lessons. The scope of work included renovating four bathrooms, opening the living / dining area, enlarging the master bedroom and bathroom as well as modifying the entry sequences both from the front as well as the rear. Many energy efficient features were installed including insulated windows, perimeter exterior insulation and a new hot water heating system and ductless cooling system. The music room has the historic windows replaced, with the same configuration, as well as the new finishes and furniture to create a dramatic, modern music room.
