When this McKenzie Lake family came to us. They wanted to make smart, simple selections that would be timeless and allow them to enjoy their great location overlooking Fish Creek Park. We renovated the interior and exterior of this home to match their exacting standards and exceptional tastes.
Their kids are out of the house, but they’ve welcomed grandbabies in the last year, so the upgrades needed to be beautiful but durable.
We’ve separated the interior project from the exterior. Please see more details on the exterior here: [LINK]
