We renovated the exterior and the 4-car garage of this colonial, New England-style estate in Haverford, PA. The 3-story main house has white, western red cedar siding and a green roof. The detached, 4-car garage also functions as a gentleman’s workshop. Originally, that building was two separate structures. The challenge was to create one building with a cohesive look that fit with the main house’s New England style. Challenge accepted! We started by building a breezeway to connect the two structures. The new building’s exterior mimics that of the main house’s siding, stone and roof, and has copper downspouts and gutters. The stone exterior has a German shmear finish to make the stone look as old as the stone on the house. The workshop portion features mahogany, carriage style doors. The workshop floors are reclaimed Belgian block brick. RUDLOFF Custom Builders has won Best of Houzz for Customer Service in 2014, 2015 2016 and 2017.

We turned this detached 2-car garage into a beautiful modern ADU packed with amazing features. This ADU has a kitchenette, full bathroom, and bedroom with closet space. The ADU has a brown vinyl wood floor, recessed lighting, ductless A/C, top-grade insulation, GFCI outlets, and more. The bathroom has a fixed vanity with one faucet and the shower is covered with large white marble tiles with pebble accents. The bedroom is an additional 150 sq. that was added to the detached garage.

This stand alone garage was converted into an mother in law style apartment. it includes a kitchen bathroom, bedroom and living room areas. By converting a never used garage into an apartment, they are able to subsidize their income and rent it out.
