Transforming Portage Park Homes: A Stunning Modern Revival

Discover how a Portage Park, Chicago family transformed their two-unit property into a spacious, modern single-family home with Pegasus Construction. The homeowners sought to reimagine their space with an open-concept layout, updated systems, and luxurious finishes to create a dream home that reflects their modern lifestyle.

Why Did the Homeowners Decide to Remodel? The homeowners wanted to transform their outdated two-unit building into a functional, single-family residence that matched their vision for a modern lifestyle. Located in the vibrant neighborhood of Portage Park, they sought a design that emphasized open spaces, luxurious finishes, and upgraded systems to create a home that could grow with their family while blending seamlessly with the community’s charm.

What Challenges Did We Overcome During the Remodel?

Converting a multi-unit property into a single-family home required significant structural reconfiguration to achieve the desired open-concept layout. Additionally, modernizing every system, including electrical, plumbing, and HVAC, while adhering to Chicago’s building codes, presented a logistical challenge. Our team navigated these complexities to ensure the project was completed efficiently and to the highest standards.

How Did We Achieve the Homeowners’ Vision?

To realize the homeowners’ dream of a spacious and modern single-family home, we completely gutted the interior and redesigned the layout with a focus on flow and functionality. The open-concept design was enhanced with new hardwood floors, sleek quartz countertops, and premium finishes like white shaker cabinets and stainless steel appliances in the kitchen. Every detail, from the modern fixtures to the master suite’s spa-like bathroom, was chosen to reflect their contemporary aesthetic.

We also tackled the exterior, replacing the siding with durable James Hardie material and adding a welcoming front porch and expansive back deck. Upgraded insulation, windows, and a new roof ensured the home was not only beautiful but energy-efficient. By combining craftsmanship with innovative design, we created a space that exceeded their expectations.

How Has This Remodel Changed the Owners’ Lives?

This transformation has provided the homeowners with a home that meets their needs and lifestyle. They now enjoy a spacious, modern retreat in the heart of Portage Park, complete with luxurious features and energy-efficient systems. The family can entertain with ease, relax in their custom-designed spaces, and take pride in a home that reflects their vision and enhances their daily lives.
