1890 Colonial Renovation
Somerville, MA

This home was due for an update after its last renovation in the late 1990s. The recent transformation improved both the layout and functionality. A wall was removed to open up the floor plan, the first-floor framing was reinforced from the basement, and a new pass-through was added between the kitchen and living room. These changes resulted in a brighter, more practical interior with clean, modern finishes.

The bathroom now includes classic white subway tile, a marble-top vanity, and light aqua walls for a simple, clean look. Hardwood flooring runs from the bathroom through the main living areas, giving the home a consistent, warm feel.



In the kitchen, light gray shaker cabinets are paired with stainless steel appliances and a traditional subway tile backsplash. Adjacent to the kitchen is a dining area with a solid wood table, metal chairs, and a bold pendant light overhead. A small breakfast nook with teal stools adds a functional spot for casual meals, and large windows bring in plenty of natural light. With updated systems and a clean, functional design, this home is now ready for everyday living.
