Bedroom-to-Bathroom Conversion, New Walk-in Closet, Laundry Closet, and Reconfigured Primary Bedroom Entry

Redefining the fourth bedroom in this home allowed us to create a spacious primary suite inclusive of this modern bathroom.

The Starting Point: An 1890 Home in Medford, MA.

Primary Suite Reconfiguration

Project Impact: This primary suite was a design puzzle that required reimagining space that was already there. By removing a few doors and reworking underutilized square footage a disconnected layout became a true primary suite, with proper circulation, a dedicated laundry closet, a walk-in closet and a spacious bathroom designed for two.
