The project
25:8 Architecture + Urban Design extended the gabled roofline over the whole house, joining the original home to an earlier addition. New upstairs bedrooms sit under dormers with a continuous ribbon of windows, and a main suite above the entrance has a private balcony cut into the roof.
The street front respects the neighbourhood, while the rear is openly modern, with oversized dormer windows bringing in daylight. A standing seam metal roof and horizontal white siding echo the original cladding, set off by red front doors.
