CENTRAL AVE HISTORIC RENO

LEXINGTON, KY

This project involved the comprehensive restoration and thoughtful expansion of a turn-of-the-century home that was in disrepair. Our team meticulously restored the original structure, preserving its historic charm.

 

The design incorporated a rear addition that blends seamlessly with the existing structure, respecting the scale and materiality of the original home. The restoration included the rejuvenation of the home's intricate details, such as the decorative woodwork on the front porch, original brick facade, and iconic window designs, which were carefully preserved to maintain its historic significance.

 

In contrast, the new rear addition brought a fresh design that complements the existing architecture without overshadowing it. This harmonious blend of old and new resulted in a home that honors its past while providing modern-day livability, making it a standout example of adaptive reuse and thoughtful design integration.

 

The project also involved updates to the home’s interior layout, systems, and finishes, all designed to ensure the home meets modern expectations for comfort and efficiency, while staying true to its historical roots. This balance between restoration and innovation makes this project a testament to the timeless appeal of historic architecture.
