Historic Lake Winnebago Home

Project Summary

This historic Lake Winnebago home was one of the original homes constructed on the North Shore and has been a recognized home amongst the community since!  Over the years it has seen many remodels, updates and expansions, but the homeowners have continued to preserve its original features and look. Major Painting was contracted in the Spring of 2022 to repair wood rot and repaint the exterior of the home as well as grind and re-coat their garage floor.
