Renovation Portfolio: 1950's Ranch to 1 1/2 story Cottage (2004-2007)

This house was purchased in 2004.  It had been in the same family since it was built as a custom home in 1950.  The house was three bedroom, two bath, with a formal living room, dining room, and sunken den.  There were two large stone fireplaces.  We added a second story (with a steeply pitched roof) to the house, hoping it would help the house blend in with the neighborhood of 1940's one and one half story cottages.

Did you paint the brick in the front of the house (finished pics) or did you add a brick veneer?

We painted the brick on that house.
