The Piano Granny

We build and remodel with a special understanding of "Age In Place" and “Active Adult Housing” modifications. In addition to upgrading existing homes, we build new homes using "Universal Design" concepts.  Our home improvement and new home construction projects include a broad range of thoughtful features, which make life easier for the elderly, disabled, or anyone seeking a more convenient lifestyle.
 
Could it be that you own or have found a home that is not quite perfect in terms of accessibility or conveniences? It is likely then, that the kitchen and bathrooms need some modifications. Light switches may need lowering; interior and exterior doors may need to be wider to accommodate wheel chairs and walkers. Sometimes, just a few improvements will make the house easier to enjoy.

There are a multitude of specific dimensions that if considered during the design phase and then implemented during construction, can make all the difference in the ease of navigating and commanding the functions of your home. Some time we spend together discussing your particular requirements could put in to motion  a process which could yield for you a lifetime of comfort.

The home featured here is called "The Sherry Lynn". Because there is a 72 inch drop from the porch to the street, the pathway is designed to include 72 feet of ramp with 3 appropriately sized and placed landings. Interior photos of this house and other project photos may be seen at the Birgerhomes Photo Site.
