Lower Rockridge, Higher Bar

The hands-on owner of this lovely craftsman in Lower Rockridge wanted to add a second story while retaining its urban feel. And by hands on, we mean this owner did the interior design work—from the tasteful wallpaper throughout the home to the custom hand railings leading up to the new addition. Other eye-catching design details like the floor-to-ceiling sliding doors opening to the yard strike the perfect balance between warm cottage and a modern, urban aesthetic.
