From the mantel up, the extra 15 foot chimney extension (necessary for the additional floor) was built entirely from stones taken from the facade of the house, as well as back side if the house.

Ten of the twelve existing laminated main rafters from the original home were removed carefully an reused for the new roof.

The front porch ceiling/roofing and the exposed roof eaves were built from lumber originally found on the existing home vaulted ceiling/roof sheathing.

Some are hand-scraped, some are re-milled.
All are structural and believed to be approximately 200 years-old.

There are a total of 6 mantels throughout the home.
Four of them are featured here.

Re-milled hickory, chestnut, mixed soft wood, all random width, each of the 3 levels of the home highlighting one specie.

The MP room (multi purposed room) is hidden behind those thick, heavy yet surprisingly smooth, sliding, handsome barn doors made of re-milled pine

You guessed it - This is also made of the same re-milled pine...

As the name suggests, our vanity was modified from a discarded armoire found on a street curb. The mirror cabinet was built around an old discarded cabinet door as well.  The "over the john" piece was made from left-over antique pine flooring.

This one was made "from scratch";  In-house conception and design. Entirely made from left-over antique flooring. - Yes, right from the surplus hickory, therefore providing a perfect match with the floor.
Note the absence of doors for more efficient storage...

Very similar concept as the one described above, but for a much less demanding crowd, mom & dad.

This vanity is made of leftover Chestnut.  So were the two mirrors frames.

Note again the absence of doors for more efficient storage...

Again, born form leftover antique chestnut, like the vanity.
An amazing amount of storage is hidden below the mattress...Without the dust!
