For the renovation of their midcentury ranch house in Chicago, Trey Berre and his wife, Maria Ponce Berre, compared bids from three contractors, ultimately hiring ABO Construction. The total budget for the project climbed to $174 per square foot after it was discovered that the roof had suffered rain damage and needed to be replaced for $40,000.
The rear wall with stacking sliding doors opens to surrounding decks and the "hero" view.
Sliding glass doors open to a private rear garden for indoor/outdoor entertaining during the warmer months.
The open-plan great room is bright and airy, with a modern feel that nods to the home's midcentury roots.
Light wood flooring warms the interior. A Baccarat chandelier hanging over the dining table adds a bit of sparkling star quality.
