Exterior Renovation | fichtnerservices.com
The home was built in 1971, and the homeowners, who purchased the home in 2018, decided it was time for an update. For roofing, a Charcoal GAF Timberline roof was chosen and black standing seam steel on the garage and right-side bump out. In keeping with the modern farmhouse look, white Certainteed Board and Batten siding was installed with new black trim and aluminum gutters. Fichtner also built a new portico to bring an inviting feeling to the front door of the home. The new structure was built with a steel standing seam roof, cedar for the posts, ceiling and trim and stonework by local mason, Larry Rupp, of Chalk Point Masonry.
The editors said: “This transformation of a classic ’70s-era colonial gets our vote for most improved curb appeal, which is really what exterior renovation is all about! While not the largest of properties, this home shows a thoughtful modern approach.”
