repurposed RENOVATION
very old pecky cypress wood that was
refinished. In the entryway, existing wall
paneling was tied in with new cabinets.
Outside, a new retention wall was created
using concrete designed to resemble
wood. “The inspiration for the master
bathroom was portholes on a cruise ship,”
Nathan adds. The renovation project also
added a loft space which increased the
square footage of the condo from 1,380
square feet to 1,800 square feet.
