South Orange Dormer Addition

Traditional Bedroom, Newark

This project consisted of a small finished attic with skylights that was difficult to keep cool and was not safe or large enough to use as a bedroom. This was solved by adding a large dormer to the rear of the third floor to allow for a finished attic bedroom, complete with closet and egress windows complimented by a built-in window seat that cleverly disguises HVAC ducting below. The egress windows are casements, but look like double hung windows to match the existing windows of the house. Construction by Macs General Contracting.
