Matthew built the shelves and painted them Charcoal Blue from Sherwin Williams. The new windows throughout the house are Milgard.

The cabinetry is painted in Behr’s “Asparagus” color, in an extra-matte, chalky finish.

Matthew and Holly opened up the foyer and kept the exposed framing in place to speak to the house’s history. The figurine on the newel post is not original to the house, but a vintage replacement found online and rewired by Matthew.
