About this home
Club Hill Refresh is a whole-home remodel inside Whitetail Club, taken on for owners who loved the bones of their house and were ready to bring the interior into the present. The brief was clear: a lighter palette, better light, and a level of finish that would measure up to the caliber of the neighborhood, without gutting what already worked.
The plan
We kept the footprint and the major structure and rebuilt the inside around how the family actually lives. The kitchen was re-planned around a single larger island and a prep pantry. The primary bath was reworked with a freestanding tub and a walk-in shower that replaced the original dated enclosure. Flooring, millwork, lighting, and hardware were coordinated as one palette so the home would read as a whole rather than a series of upgrades.
Details worth calling out
- A lighter, warmer palette. Honed stone, white oak, and matte hardware replace the darker finishes the house wore in its first chapter.
- Light, reclaimed. Interior openings were widened and a few strategic windows were added so the main living floor reads as one continuous volume.
- Mechanical upgrades, quietly. HVAC zoning and a rebuilt radiant system were brought up to current-build standards without disturbing the finished spaces they serve.
- Details that match the neighborhood. Trim profiles, cabinet construction, and hardware were specified to the standard the rest of Whitetail Club expects.
What we learned
Remodels inside a lived-in home are as much about sequencing as they are about design. We staged the work so the owners could keep using key parts of the house through the build, coordinated closely with Whitetail Club's guidelines for construction access and hours, and kept a tight weekly check-in so the family always knew what the next week looked like.
After handoff
The owners are back in the home and enjoying it. We stayed on for the first year's maintenance cycle to tune the new systems and address the small follow-up items that remodels of this scope always surface. That's part of how we leave a project, every time.
