Bell Mountain Remodel

This full-home renovation and addition was a complete reinvention of an existing house that no longer served its setting or the way it was lived. Typical of its era, the original home was defined by heavy finishes, inward-facing rooms, and a layout that limited light, connection, and flexibility.

The project reimagined both the interior organization and the home’s relationship to the outdoors. A new family room addition introduces a vaulted ceiling and fireplace, creating a light-filled lounge space that anchors daily life and opens the home to its Hill Country surroundings. A screened porch addition further extends the living space, offering a seamless transition between indoors and out.

Within the existing footprint, walls were selectively removed and openings refined to improve flow and sightlines. The kitchen was redesigned as a central gathering space, framed by custom millwork and a restrained material palette that brings cohesion throughout the home. Together, the renovation and additions transform the house into a more purposeful, connected, and confident place—fully aligned with its setting and how it is lived today.
