DESCRIPTION

"Grandma" (my sons grandmother) always dreamed of having a dining room so in 1995 she and Grandpa moved into this Naperville home where we transformed every square inch of this home. The 8' ceilings were opened and replaced with cathedral ceilings; walls in the compartmentalized rooms were demolished to create an open concept design; the millwork and doors were all replaced; the 2 bathrooms were gutted and the master bath enlarged by 'borrowing' a second pantry in the kitchen all on a very tight budget. My pictures are pretty bad but better than nothing... :-)
