The Little Blue Hill House - Addition
The Little Blue Hill House project presented a unique challenge in terms of artistry and reclamation. The opportunity? A turn-of-the-century barn on the property, framed with irreplaceable, hand-hewn timbers. Our craftsmen carefully dismantled the structure to salvage this historic lumber, giving it a second life as stunning architectural features. We meticulously integrated the reclaimed wood throughout the new addition, from the dramatic exposed beams to custom-milled doors and trim. This home now stands as a seamless blend of past and present, showcasing our deep respect for historic materials and the unique, handcrafted details that turn a house into a legacy.
Rescue Project - Restoration
This project was a rescue mission. When another builder’s work left their dream home in a state of disrepair, the family trusted Generations Custom Homes to make it right. We undertook a comprehensive restoration, meticulously demolishing and rebuilding ceilings, installing high-performance insulation, and replacing all compromised sheetrock. We transformed a source of constant frustration into a beautifully finished, structurally sound haven, finally restoring the family's confidence and peace of mind. It’s a powerful example of our commitment to turning any renovation, no matter how challenging, into a dream come true."

Classic House on MDI - Renovation
This project involved a complete, top-to-bottom renovation of a classic home originally built in 1920. We took this century-old structure and transformed it into a modern, energy-efficient, and beautifully finished home.
The house was stripped to its bones, allowing us to address the core structure. A critical part of the project was adding comprehensive insulation to the entire building, which previously had none. We installed a full set of new, high-performance windows and doors to further enhance the home's efficiency. A major upgrade included the integration of a high-tech ducted heating and cooling system, bringing state-of-the-art climate control to the entire house.
The exterior was given a complete facelift with brand-new siding, all new exterior trim, and a professional paint job, restoring its timeless curb appeal. The attention to detail continued inside with new trim throughout and a full interior repainting, resulting in a fresh, clean, and move-in-ready space that honors the home's historic character while providing all the comforts of modern living.
