Kris Arnold License www.ka-construction.com The owners wanted to achieve two goals with this remodel: Update the exterior of the home and add more space in the kitchen and dining areas for family gatherings. In the end, we were able to transform this shared three-level into a modern and welcoming home.
1068 Reads Run, Traverse City
By using the existing structure along with a fresh color scheme and decorative details, we were able to bring new life and character to the exterior of the home. Inside, we knocked out the middle partition walls on the main level, creating much-needed open space for a larger kitchen and dining room layout.

A Brief Comparison Between Building New and Remodeling
Of course, with a new build you'll need a place to stay during construction, but remodeling can be just as displacing. It depends on the extent of the remodeling, but more often than not, temporary accommodation will be necessary and very beneficial. Whichever way you go, one thing is certain: you are embarking on an exciting adventure, at the end of which awaits a home that will be new to you.
