Laurelhurst

Nestled in Portland’s historic Laurelhurst neighborhood, this 1928 Tudor Revival home was ready for a fresh chapter. Our clients, a busy modern family, loved their home’s character but longed for spaces that felt lighter, more functional, and better suited to everyday life.

At the heart of the renovation, the kitchen was completely reimagined to blend historic charm with modern ease. Soapstone counters, handmade tile, and abundant wood tones bring warmth and authenticity, while a refined new layout improves flow and functionality. The addition of a mudroom created much-needed organization and everyday efficiency—transforming how the family moves through their home.

Throughout the process, our goal was to honor the home’s original architecture while introducing thoughtful, modern updates. The result is a home that feels both classic and current—one that celebrates its heritage while embracing how this family truly lives today.
