## Project overview

This renovation demonstrates Blackstone's renovation philosophy: respect the original, elevate the experience. This 4,200-square-foot traditional home received a comprehensive update that modernized systems and finishes while preserving the architectural character that made it worth saving.

New kitchen and bath designs brought the home into alignment with how the family actually lives, while restored millwork and refinished hardwoods maintained continuity with the home's history.
