Checking In On Another Bethesda Remodel

by

You may remember from previous installments of this story that the owners of this beautiful old home were badly seeking updates. The entire drive and surrounding brick privacy wall were falling into disrepair and needed to be artfully cleaned, reclaimed, and reconstructed, only this time with an electronic privacy fence. The rear entry and garage were in need or a makeover, and the front entryway had really become a sore spot for them and was screaming for an update.
 
 
Starting with the entry gate this time, you’ll see that now that we have cleaned and reconstructed the old brick privacy wall, updated the property drainage, and tuned up the entry pillars of the drive itself, we were busy this past week installing the custom entry gate and artfully hiding the electric box that will allow easy entrance and security for our clients.
 
As you’ll see from the finished shots above, not only does this gate addition add privacy and help secure the rear perimeter of the home, it greatly adds to the curb appeal and value of the home overall as well.
 
While we’re probably best known for our additions, whole house renovations, and custom work with kitchens and baths, this project and the homeowner’s lot lent itself particularly well to this custom feature. More importantly, it also helped us transform the look and feel of the property for our client, which at the end of the day is what we’re here for whether it be inside or out!
 

Checking In On Our Work Out Front

This dated entry had the homeowners looking for something new, but in addition, the foundation of the entry slab itself was beginning to sink. The first step was removal of the entry feature from the home, and then digging out the compromised foundation to install something solid, new, and fresh.

After proper demo, it was time to set the new foundation. With a beautiful new drive, rear entry, and electronic gate waiting for them around back while we took over the front, this left us free to update the front entryway with minimal disruption to the homeowner. A long-lasting foundation for the new entry pad means properly excavating the old and compromised and setting rock-solid base to build on. From a design perspective, the key here (as shown below) for the homeowners is that the new seamlessly blend with the front walk already in place leading up to the home.
