Bathroom, Kitchen, Attic, & Enclosed Porch Renovation | Savannah, Georgia
This historic brick townhouse has experienced many remodels over one hundred twenty nine years, some not so loving as this. The space is naturally challenging: it is compact and vertical!
19th century construction (and hidden unhappy surprises) disrupted plumbing, HVAC, and electrical upgrades but the results tell a different tale.

The long neglected attic space was only accessible by “pull-down” attic steps. The space received a new staircase for ease of access and was renovated to provide additional living space including the relocation of the laundry area. A fresh, modern lifestyle now resides comfortably within the grace of historic Savannah charm.
This home now looks effortless, thoughtful and stylish, a testament to the skill of Interior Designer Deena Rauen and architect Shauna Kucera. While this project demanded old world acumen and serious problem solving, the result was never in doubt.
