Starcom Design/Build Before & After Photos

An in-law suite complete with a full kitchen, bathroom, laundry, family room and bedroom.

Customer needed some final touches to the front of their home with a portico. A portico is a roof supported by columns from the front porch. This small expansion makes the home more inviting and gives a unique look for the front door. 

The addition of railings were added too for both a look and a safety. The siding color matches the siding of the home while the white posts, railings, and even the steps are white to match the door/door frame and garage. A new door was also added with a glass door in front. The new door, red, matching the shutters, tie in the house into a color scheme. 

With the home owner pleased, the finished home was complete on schedule with no issues. 

With large gatherings as a constant, the home owner needed an update to parts of the kitchen. This stage of the renovation was the pantry section. More organized, more up-to-date style, revolutionized the flow of the kitchen.  With the homeowner who loves to entertain and cook, she needed an area of the kitchen to hold all her cooking supplies! 

Proper storage was a must, and to open the space up, the addition of putting the fridge, oven, and microwave into the surrounding pantries and cabinets to be all at her disposal was the decision that best fit the space. Dark wood made the polished steel appliances stand out, easy to clean, and offered a unique function for utilizing space. 

The end of the project delighted the homeowner and later wanted the rest of the kitchen remodeled, and later, an addition branching off the kitchen into the backyard! 

The original kitchen was in need of an upgrade. The home owner was looking for a better design that would be simple, modern, and easy to clean. A more open concept was agreed upon thanks to the help of our Designer, Carly. 

The new white cabinets brighten up the home while the luxury vinyl plank brings warmth and easy cleaning. Ridding of the dark brown tones, the kitchen now lets the natural light brighten the space with ease. The new simplistic style still has it charms and uniqueness. The floor, in a light brown, still easy to clean and durable. The new layout opens the space allowing tactical countertops and a bigger table for those important family meals. There was also the change to condense the appliances for easier access in usage when cooking large meals for the big family gatherings. 

In the end, the home owner was overjoyed with how clean cut the kitchen looks! 

Anticipating family members moving in within 4 months, an In-Law Suite was necessary to accommodate the expanding family in Ellicott City. Starcom Design Build constructed an In-Law Suite attached to the original home. The Addition has a good space for the Family Member moving in while also keeping the style of the original home. 

The solution was to add a 1200 sq foot addition with a new 250 sq foot screened porch. The new addition includes a full kitchen, full primary bath on the first floor and a full guest bath on the second floor, a study on the second floor, a primary bedroom and walk in closet on the first floor, a laundry room in the hallway, and an open front porch. 

The end result is a beautiful and cohesive addition that blends well with the original home yet is an independent and private space. The Homeowners were pleased with the end result and are able to care for their elderly Family Members.
