This whole house remodel in Denver’s historic Alamo Placita neighborhood brought fresh life to a charming 1939 home. Completed in 2024, the project focused on high-impact updates within a thoughtful budget—refreshing the kitchen, two bathrooms, and adding a stylish new bar in the basement.

While the layout stayed largely intact, the upgrades were strategic: modern finishes, whole-house repainting, and new carpet gave the entire home a clean, cohesive feel. The kitchen and baths, untouched since the early 2000s, were reimagined for everyday functionality and timeless simplicity—respecting the home’s history while making it ready for the future.
