Historic Whole-house Remodel

Hofmann Design Build (HDB) transformed a turn-of-the-century historic home in Madison, New Jersey, into a modern, functional space while preserving its unique architectural charm. The homeowners, who had raised their large family in the house, initially struggled with a 1950s kitchen and no family room. After an unsuccessful attempt with a local architect that resulted in an unbuildable, over-budget plan, they turned to HDB for a solution.

HDB designed and executed a stunning kitchen, family room, and bedroom addition that respected the home’s historic character and met the homeowners’ budget. The project, completed in just five months, overcame the challenges posed by the home’s complex rooflines and distinctive exterior. The result is a seamless integration of the new spaces into the existing architecture, significantly enhancing the home’s functionality, aesthetic appeal, and overall value.
