Builder in Hamilton
Hamilton homes have great bones and, usually, one thing in common: the rooms are closed off from each other.
Around Beaumont Street you find Federation and interwar houses with high ceilings and solid construction, but floor plans cut up into small separate rooms the way they built them back then. The most common job here is the knock-through: taking out the wall between a poky kitchen and the dining room to make one big light-filled living space.
I did exactly that on a place in Hamilton, kitchen and dining into a single open room with an island bench. It is the change that makes the biggest difference to how an old house actually lives day to day.
