Renovated 1950s ranch in New Jersey

This modern and beautiful residence didn’t always use to look like this. In fact, there was a time when it was so old and in such bad shape that is was market as “tear-down”. But instead of doing that, the owner decided to ignore that fact and to try to renovate it. It was a very successful project and there it is, a new home built from the ashes of what used to be a ranch.

The residence is located in Princeton, New Jersey. It was renovated by Dowling Studios. The team was asked to give it a new and modern look while also expanding it. The owner wanted to add more space for the family and thought there was no better opportunity to do that than this one. The renovation was also a great example of recycling and sustainability. Not only that the house got a completely new look but the team working at this project also decided to add a green roof and a pool.
