Manhattan Remodel & Cape Cod Affordable Project

Viewing the Open Floor Plan Video

Bob is inside one of the Mashpee, Massachusetts, affordable homes where the work is nearly completed. Bob walks us through a non-traditional open floor plan in this Colonial-style home. The living room opens onto the eat-in area of the spacious kitchen. Off of the kitchen is another room suitable for use as a dining room, study, or playroom. Bellawood floors run throughout the rooms. Kenmore appliances have been installed in the kitchen.
