Added Space with Rustic Charm
Added Space with Rustic Charm
The Family Room Addition extended the house by 12' and included a full height staked stone fireplace, a larger gathering space, and a new stairwell to the converted crawlspace. This remodel also included removing a long hallway that sectioned off the dining room from the of the house. The covered deck off the kitchen was enclosed to create a new breakfast room which features 2 skylights and many windows that take in views of the backyard. New rustic hickory flooring was installed throughout the main floor and used on the stair treads. Custom oak handrails and newel posts at both staircases were stained to match the new hickory floors. A new bonus room, bathroom and gym were created in the former crawl space, which was tall enough to accommodate these rooms without many changes to the structure.

New Basement Bonus Rooms
The home had a generous crawlspace will full standing clearance. The homeowners approached our team on way to capture it as a bonus room with an attached gym and bathroom. With two growing boys, this would be a perfect space to watch movies, play video games, play instruments and workout.

Rustic Entry Staircase
New custom-made oak handrails, stair treads, and newel posts were stained and installed by our in house finish carpenters. This upgrade to the main entry stairs adds rustic and modern touches to go along with the remodel.
Grand Fireplace
The scale of the family room addition called for a beautiful accent wall. Our Designer, Sarah, achieved this with a full height fireplace and accent paint color to contrast the stone work. The stacked stone and rustic wood mantel help this grand space feel cozy.

Wood Beam
The cream and brown stacked stone fireplace extends to the peak of the vaulted ceiling and meets a new structural beam, which was lifted into place using lots of heavy machinery. Once installed, the beam was wrapped in hickory to match the new hardwood flooring.
What our Clients are Saying
See the Riverside Farmhouse Remodel project“Throughout the project, Sarah did an incredible job of listening to our vision and guided our decisions with her extensive design experience. G. Christianson consistently provided excellent materials, work, communication, and, moreover, they became our friends throughout the process. They used only superior quality products throughout our home, made sure all systems and structures throughout were constructed to meet or exceed code standards, and took the initiative to provide superior construction techniques even where it wouldn't show. The custom cabinetry and carpentry throughout is top quality and beautiful. The result is exactly the dream home we've always wanted! Sarah, Tanner, and the GCC team created a gorgeous, comfortable space where our family can grow for decades. It was an incredible two-year experience with the GCC family.”
