Story:

Before: A bustling family of four needed another car stall, additional storage, and wished for a large 3-season porch for the entire family to enjoy, plus a traditional sauna would be a wonderful bonus and dream come true!

After: The addition blends seamlessly with the original architecture and provides storage, functionality, and a bright, sunny space to enjoy the summer months.

Highlights :

  • An additional 1½ car garage was added to the back of the home – providing ample storage along with space for another vehicle. This required the electrical service mast that supplies electricity to the home be relocated to make way for the addition.
  • A second-floor was built above the existing 2-car garage to include a 3-season porch, laundry room, and traditional sauna.
  • The rows of windows in the porch let in generous natural lighting and provide a wonderful cross-breeze for hot summer nights. The oversized ceiling fan aids with air movement.
  • Shiplap in a light, soft color was applied to both the walls and ceiling of the porch to add subtle visual interest.
  • The porch’s vaulted ceiling, with wrapped beams, gives a grand feel to a cozy space.
  • A neutral, maintenance-free floor was used on the porch to provide a backdrop for colorful area rugs.
  • A large doorway connects the addition to the existing second-floor hall. This allows the bright plant-filed hallway to remain sunny all year round.
  • The traditional sauna boasts plenty of seating, a glass door, and custom accent lighting.

What People Are Saying
I have hired Dan and his crew at Hanson Building and Remodeling for several projects and have been very happy with the quality of the work. I have an old house, and it can be tricky to find the right materials and to make things fit and to stay true to the character of house while updating it, and Dan is very willing to work with me to come up with a viable and affordable plan.
