Homes in this post-war neighborhood outside of Birmingham, Alabama are known for their distinctive ranch style, with main level living, brick exteriors, and in many instances, walk out basements. This home, with a preexisting half story addition, was designed for a couple with growing kids who needed space for socializing as well as family entertaining, and a complete renovation makes this beloved ranch floor plan work for today’s family. The new layout is focused around a kitchen which opens completely to the outdoor deck, overlooking the family pool, with a larger master suite and closet, main level laundry, and plenty of bedrooms at the upper and lower levels for kids and guests.
