Tuck Under Garage Addition - Hanson Remodeling

Story:

Before: This family loved their home but grew tired of the hard-to-access backyard, lack of outdoor living space, and absence of garage or mudroom.

After: A tuck under garage with a rooftop deck addition brings function and style to a beloved classic home.

Highlights:

The hill on the side of the home was excavated to make room for the new garage and driveway.
Siding was selected to match with the homes existing siding. Exterior fascia and trim details were recreated for a seamless transition between old and new.
Garage doors were chosen to resemble the existing windows and match the stairs, posts and rails of the new deck.
Maintenance-free decking material was used for ease of care and cleaning.
A kitchen window was removed and replaced with an exterior door for easy access to the deck.
A wire deck railing adds a modern twist to the design and has minimal impact on sight lines.
The main staircase allows for access to the sidewalk from the deck. Another set of stairs was added for access from the deck to the backyard.
A door between the garage and basement creates easy access to the home, and a simple mudroom was constructed to store the family’s winter coats and boots.
