This home, situated on a shady lot in Mountain Brook, has hosted several generations of the same family, and any renovations needed to be respectful of the home’s history, while remaining sensitive to the requirements of the current family. Without adding any square footage, the space was reconfigured to accommodate a back foyer, complete with a drop zone and new pantry, as well as laundry and powder rooms tucked away behind traditional paneled walls. A new kitchen added style and functionality, and upstairs bathrooms were given a fresh, bright look with plenty of outlets and storage for the family’s teenage girls. The home’s original stone exterior walls were left exposed, and new lighting accents the family’s art collection.
