Spotlight on 2010 GALA Award Winners: Ardent Homes, James McDonald Associate Architects

2010 GALA Award: Best Residential Remodeling, Under $500,000: Ardent Homes, James McDonald Associate Architects

Winner of the 2010 GALA Award for Best Residential Remodeling, Under $500,000, Ardent Homes and James McDonald Associate Architects transformed a modest Cape Cod Colonial on Lost Acre Lane in Great Falls, VA, into  a light-filled retreat with a touch of French Country charm. Before, the home had a cramped entry foyer and living room. Ardent Homes and James McDonald Associate Architects updated the kitchen and owner’s suite, added a family living space on the rear of the home, and opened up living room walls to give the foyer a larger feel.
