A Family Affair

Through a lot of thought and consideration, this family decided it was time for the rebuild of their family home. Majority of their land stands occupied with the nursery they own and maintain, but with substantial land left over, they were able to design a spacious, brand-new home. 

Over the years, the house had become increasingly cramped, and its aging structure posed significant safety concerns.  With the children growing, the need for additional space was undeniable. The new home needed to accommodate husband and wife, their 2 sons, and the husband’s sister. This now became n opportunity to cerate something new and better suited to their needs.  

They enlisted the help of the design+build team of Graham Builders to design a house that would not only accommodate their big family but also reflect their unique tastes and preferences. The new design incorporated modern amenities, spacious living areas, and plenty of bedrooms to accommodate each family member.

As the big reveal came, this family was not only thrilled with the end result but reminded that though the transformation was daunting at times, it was all worth it in the end.
