Welcome to Project Michigan Ave, a delightful renovation nestled in the historic Bungalow Heaven neighborhood of Pasadena, California. This charming bungalow was a testament to the enduring appeal of Craftsman-style homes, and the project focused on enhancing its inherent beauty while making it market-ready. Michigan Ave was a unique project in that it didn't require extensive updates. The home's layout was already great, with a solid foundation in place. The focus was on cosmetic fixes to bring out its full potential. To appeal to potential buyers, the kitchen and bathrooms received refreshing updates. New quartz countertops and neutral color palettes were introduced, adding a touch of modern elegance while retaining the home's classic charm. The real showstopper of this renovation was the living room and fireplace area. A twist on the classic Craftsman fireplace was created, becoming a centerpiece that breathed new life into the space. Craftsman molding was carried throughout the home, ensuring a consistent and timeless design.
