Classic Colonial Elegance Meets Modern Family Living
The owners of this 1960 Colonial in Saratoga Springs, NY envisioned a light‑filled, open‑concept home with modern amenities while preserving the timeless appeal of its classic red‑brick façade. Their wish list included an open floor plan, first‑floor guest suite, luxury primary bath, children’s play area, indoor plunge pool with sauna, and inviting outdoor living spaces. Opening up the traditional compartmentalized Colonial layout required significant structural work, including carefully sliding steel beams into existing joists to support the floors and roof above.
A new addition brought abundant windows, an expansive family room, and a spa‑like primary suite. Above the garage, a re‑pitched roof with dormers created a bright, charming playroom for the kids. The completed renovation delivers over 4,000 square feet of modern comfort, seamlessly blending new design with the home’s classic character—so it feels as though it has always belonged on its tree‑lined street.
