HOME ADDITIONS
Playroom and Porch Addition on M-Streets in Dallas TX
Homeowner Desired Outcome
After finding Blackline Renovations from a referral, these Dallas homeowners were ready to expand their master closet and renovate the attic space to create a usable playroom for their grandchildren. Safeguarding the integrity of this older historic home was paramount. Consequently, it was critical that the new addition be built to look like it was originally part of the home—seamlessly blended with the two structures.
Our Creative Solution
The creative design solution included expanding the master closet on the first floor and raising the original brick into the new gable.
On the exterior, the new second floor addition was designed so that the roof line for the structure was hidden by the original ridge line of the house. Existing Hardie-shingle siding was replaced on the front gables with stucco panels and trim to match the stucco detail on the front façade.
To better incorporate both additions, a gable roof porch was added, which also created depth and dimension, and protected the exterior doors from the elements. Building the new porch also required extensive relocation of the existing electrical, plumbing, and sewer lines.
All of the finishes and fixtures were selected to match the home’s original architecture, including custom decorative ceiling beams, custom-matched trim profiles, antique brass hardware, and neutral paint colors. Custom window mullions in the new upstairs addition and Craftsman-style detail round out this incredible, authentic design inspired by the Arts and Crafts movement.
