This quaint cottage near the Chesapeake Bay was purchased by new empty nesters with an eye on a value remodel. The main floor was renovated with small but significant upgrades to the floors and finishes. The kitchen was given a facelift with new countertops, backsplash, and lighting. A new oversized island in a custom marine blue anchors the large kitchen. The light filled second floor addition over the garage takes full advantage of the water views. Adding a bedroom, bathroom, and office in just 425SF was a sound real estate investment.

 

The exterior was given classic cottage details like shingle siding, bracketed eaves, and plank shutters. A new front gable and front porch exterior added architectural detail and much needed curb appeal. The house is now perfect for the homeowners to enjoy for years to come.
