Millburn Dutch Colonial

Millburn, NJ, USA • 2010

A 90 yr old suburban home gets a facelift and a reworked interior.

This modest 1920's Dutch Colonial had seen very little work since the Carter administration. A complete renovation to accomodate the client's young family would include a modern kitchen, reworking bedrooms, finishing the basement, and adding space for additional bathrooms, a family room and study. Taking advantage of tax credits for increasing energy efficiency, the entire house was gutted and re-insulated, reclad and upgraded with new windows, electric, HVAC, plumbing and radiant heating. In order to accommodate the expanded program a contextual addition was designed to both blend harmoniously with the existing structure, and to maximize the buildable area within the stringent local zoning and building regulations.
