Case Study – Victorian Renovation & Addition

Check out Heirloom Design Build‘s renovation and addition project on a Victorian style house in Candler Park Neighborhood, Atlanta, GA. Click here to see detailed description and more pictures.

This 1890s Victorian house was restored it in a way that preserved its historic charm while turning it into a cozy home for a 21st century family of four.
Our design team worked together with the family to create their dream house while staying within their budget. HDB completely renovated the first floor and removed the existing roof to add a second story. In addition, the second story living space was designed within the newly built attic space, allowing to create a large and spacious home while retaining the historical integrity and keeping the house in scale with its neighbors.

HDB was able to strip and reuse the existing wood trim, original 1893 hard pine floors, and unique tiled fireplaces and mantles. The owner also chose materials consistent with the house’s original Victorian architectural style.

Now, the home provides everything this growing family needs to thrive in this beautiful and highly accessible neighborhood. The finished product blends historic charm with modern comfort.
