Located in the heart of the historic University District of Missoula, this classic 1922 bungalow had a perfect first floor layout and a second floor full of opportunity. The project was thought of as a “reclamation” project as it claimed square footage found in inaccessible attics on the second floor of the home.
Dormers, using the full width of the house, capture all the square footage of the home’s footprint, creating a contained family suite on the second floor. The only change to the first floor, the addition of a breakfast nook adds to function and comfort of the kitchen.
