We instantly fell head over heels with 1508 Hull Ave when we first walked through with our realtor friend, Eric Quiner, last winter. This unique home was built in 1926 and is directly across from Grandview University. We knew right away that the house had great bones and ever charming original architecture under it’s current dirty and dated finishes.
We reconfigured the kitchen - deleting a wall and remapping the tragic flow of the entire house. We were able to add a drop zone and coffee bar. Refinished hardwood floors, trim, casings, and all new windows were replaced in a style keeping the home’s original character in mind.

Lighting is a huge love of ours, so when we came across those bubbly milk glass island pendants we had to design the whole house around them.

Our goal with any historic renovation is to give the home a new, modern life but always-always keep the original character in mind and bring it back to life. We are so pleased with Hull Avenue’s new look and know that it’s new owners feel the same - it went under contract hours after the listing was posted.
