McLean VA - Vibrant Blues
Project Background
Project Goals
This 2023 McLean home renovation focused on transforming the main floor with updated finishes, improved materials, and a more cohesive design throughout the living spaces. The project began with removing the outdated tile flooring across the entire main level and replacing it with new hardwood floors, dramatically warming the interior and creating a continuous flow between the foyer, kitchen, and living areas.
The kitchen was refreshed with painted cabinetry, new countertops, a subway tile backsplash, and upgraded appliances. We also remodeled the existing built-ins in the living room by refinishing the cabinetry and installing updated hardware to give the space a clean, modern appearance. Additional improvements included painting throughout the home, updating the powder room, and modernizing fixtures to create a brighter and more polished interior.
