Don't have the skills nor the time to DIY this one...my contribution is writing checks and making the 10,000+ decisions that are required in a project like this.
Starting point. Lovely Tudor. PO owned since early 70's. Raised 6 kids in the house. Spent nearly $0 on upkeep during 40+ years.
Demolition derby. Lead paint, asbestos...the whole shebang.
Demolish masonry wall that borders driveway (and makes it too narrow). Demolish side entry for basement (for access to prior owner's "Silence of the Lambs" doctor's office).
New open floor plan...structural steel in ceiling due to removal of load bearing wall.
rear porch demolished, proper footing installed. Will be finished space now (Powder room with a view).
More perspective of open floor plan. Rough electrics in.
Rough mechanicals in. 2 zone Central A/C replaces 9 window units that were tossed in the dumpsters.
New rear entry door, all new windows
More new windows
