53-55 Ashford St- Apartment Building Renovation

ALLSTON, MA

A gut rehabilitation project of a 3-story wood frame Victorian era apartment building in Boston’s Allston/ Brighton neighborhood. The challenge was to redesign the six floor-through units into twelve-one and two bedroom code compliant apartments while maintaining the historic charm of the property. New electrical service, plumbing, fire protection and HVAC components were introduced. The ornate mahogany stairways of the building were restored and reconfigured for egress. The new apartment units were furnished with hardwood flooring, paneled doors with historic casings, new kitchens and bathrooms as well as private balconies.
