Priestford Estates
The homeowners of this home in Priestford Estates have been loyal clients of Van Deusen Construction for years. One of their recent projects was the renovation of their basement entertaining space. The homeowners wished to retain the existing bar while also updating the remainder of the room. The bar was updated by adding a new top and a new sink, dishwasher, and ice maker were installed behind the bar to gain every modern convenience. The basement received a new floating floor for comfort and new ceramic tile was installed behind the bar area. One challenge of the basement was incorporating the home’s solar heat system. This was accomplished by installing a new drop-down ceiling in order to access the home’s heating mechanisms and recessed lighti ng was added to the space. Van Deusen also took action at reducing any moisture problems in the basement. New moldings, wainscoting and chair rail complete the custom look of this basement.
The homeowners again contacted Van Deusen when it was time to upgrade their outdoor living space. The homeowner dreamed of a poolside screened-in porch with a fireplace for outdoor entertaining. The challenge of combining these two features called for a Zero Clearance wood burning fireplace. Cultured stone and masonry were built around the fireplace and custom sliding doors were added to access the porch area. A top-of-the-line Trex decking system installed around the pool by Van Deusen realized the homeowner’s dream of a luxurious outdoor space for entertaining with every amenity.
