The Westerly one-story ranch house has been converted to a two-story Dutch Colonial thanks to the Sweenor team. Today the crew does a final walkthrough and says goodbye to the homeowners and the apprentices.
Starting outdoors, Kevin shows off the new sweeping gambrel roofline before heading inside to meet Jeff. They begin the tour in the original long hallway to see the updated bathroom, an old bedroom which is now an office complete with barn doors and a wall of shelving, and another old bedroom that has turned into a spacious laundry room. The original room with the green carpeting has been converted into a playroom where Jeff’s team, along with Norm and Mauro, repurposed the old knotty pine paneling to create a whitewashed wainscoting around the room.
Upstairs, Jeff meets Tommy who is helping to hang the shower door in the girls’ bathroom. In the girls’ bedrooms, they point out the reclaimed flooring that was sanded, finished and brought back to life. Jeff and his crew did the millwork in the both the upstairs and downstairs hallways including a custom built-in, the staircase and railings. The master bedroom suite shows off the gambrel accent roofline detail and has lots of windows to capture the view.
Back downstairs, Kevin walks through the widened front entry area to meet homeowners Scott and Shayla in the kitchen. The ceiling has been raised a foot with a new custom coffered detail throughout the entire living area. The original dark cabinets have been replaced with white on the exterior walls and blue lower cabinets on the island. They admire a new double slider door that opens from the dining room to a large deck. The fireplace was moved to another side of the family room, and Jeff’s crew used shiplap for the surround and white oak floating shelves to flank it. Norm and Jeff come in with the custom ellipse coffee table that they built in Jeff’s shop using salvaged wood from Scott’s great-uncle’s barn.
