  Program Overview
A grand, turn-of-the-century home carefully converted into two apartments and a staff office, for use by a privately run out-patient program of the Vermont State Hospital.

Project Data
Area: 3500 sf
Cost: $165,000 renovations
Client: Washington County Mental Health, Montpelier, Vermont
Completion: 1982

  Design Features
Energy use has been diminished by the use of insulating window shades, triple-glazed replacement windows, full wall and roof insulation, foundation insulation, and water reducing shower heads, faucets, and toilet units. Traditional interior casework and trim has been re-used and supplemented by exact matching millwork as required. A five color painting scheme is used on the exterior to create an appearance consistent with the time of original construction.
