Our client, an avid weaver, wanted to transform her South Minneapolis home’s dated, underused Attic into a sanctuary with a Master Suite and workspace to practice her passion for weaving.

Project Type: Attic Remodel With Full Bath
Style of Home: 1 ½ Story Tudor
Year Built: 1932
Project construction will take approximately 14 – 16 weeks to complete.

The Story

One and a half story homes are common in Minneapolis and often have unfinished or underutilized Attic space. Our client’s Attic, partially finished in the 1980s, featured outdated carpet and a monstrous jetted tub in the Bathroom. Remodeling the Attic would allow for a much-needed update as well as creating an opportunity to reimagine the space to better suit the homeowner’s wishes and lifestyle.

The homeowner, a weaver, owns multiple looms. She wanted to create a dedicated weaving room in the Attic where she could spend time weaving. The Attic remodel wish list also included adding more windows looking out on her yard and gardens, as she is an avid gardener.

The Goals

To remodel this Attic, we will reconfigure the space to create two Bedrooms, a full Bath, and dedicated storage space. Getting rid of the skylights and improving insulation are also on the list of project goals.
