Sylvan Park Cottage
Sylvan Park - Nashville
McCorison Homes was hired to turn an old cinderblock garage into a dream cottage – “The Ultimate Bachelor Pad.”
The original house was a cinder block box with a simple roof and slab floor. The interior was in very poor shape. The space was relatively small – 900 sq. feet.
The client worked with architect Mitch Hodge to design an interior in the style of a Montana cabin.
We pulled up linoleum tiles off the slab and trenched the concrete slab for plumbing.
Staining the concrete slab.. Local artisans Nashville Concrete Artists allowed the old remaining glue to become a part of the look. The result intersected with the new concrete creating a mondrian style pianting effect.
The final room is dominated by a real, wood burning stack stone fireplace. Custom kitchen cabinets by Chris Barber of Barber Woodworking were topped with custom built 100 year old heart-pine counter tops and accented with a French farmhouse style sink.
