Costs vary widely depending on the scope of work, the size of the home, and the level of finishes selected. Renovating an older home also involves updating systems like electrical, plumbing, and HVAC, which we assess up front. During your initial consultation, we discuss your goals and investment range so we can design a renovation that delivers the best long-term value for your home.
Absolutely, and we encourage it. Clean rooflines, warm wood tones, and a strong connection to the outdoors are part of what makes these homes special. Our design-build team is experienced in mid-century modern renovation and can modernize your home while honoring the architectural details worth keeping.
Most projects involve updating 1950s and 1960s ranch homes for modern living: opening compartmentalized floor plans, expanding and modernizing kitchens, transforming small original bathrooms into spa-style retreats, updating electrical and plumbing systems, and adding square footage or outdoor living spaces where the lot allows.
For many homeowners, renovation is the smarter path. Melshire Estates homes were typically well built, and a whole home renovation preserves your lot, your mature trees, and the neighborhood’s mid-century character while delivering modern layouts, systems, and finishes. It is often more cost-effective than new construction and keeps what makes the property irreplaceable. We are happy to walk your home and give you an honest assessment.
