This is the story of John and Carol, who simply needed more space for their growing family of three children for their Midvale Road home in West Roxbury. Working with Metro’s team, the solution was to finish their existing basement and add to their overall living space and create a more open floor plan.
“The original basement was completely unusable as it wasn’t finished and didn’t lend itself to an open floor plan. Utilizing the existing area was the most cost effective means of expansion without expanding the building.” – Paul WilkesScope of Project
