Simply put this gut renovation was by far the most extensive renovation ever completed at any condominium at Okemo. Like almost all of the condominium projects built on Okemo, Trailside has its share of fundamental problems. Mold, insulation, water infiltration and heating lead the list. The maintenance of the units, especially their exteriors were not in good hands for many years. Fortunately the association has finally changed horses and brought on a top-flight management team. Our client is in the real estate development business and was uniquely qualified to be able to see past the wind whipping thru the unit and the tell-tale odor of mold on the lower level. We were tasked with gutting the unit right to the studs, performing the necessary mold remediation and starting over from there. The original design of most Trailside units included a small galley kitchen with a wall that closes down the space. Working with our structural engineer we were able to add structural elements that enabled us to remove the wall and really open up the space. The expanded gourmet kitchen now features a 42” counter depth refrigerator, double ovens, 6 burner cook top and two dishwashers with a breakfast bar that can seat four comfortably. We replaced the tiny firebox with a new wood burning unit and added a two-story stone wall that also housed a built-in cabinet for the stereo system and a flat screen TV. This family did not need a bath tub downstairs, so did away with that and added a custom 5’ shower with bench. Radiant heat was added on the first and top floors, and in order to accommodate all of these modifications, we upgraded the electrical service to 200amp. The master bathroom also desperately needed to be updated. Once again, that oversized jetted tub was an icon that was never going to be used. In it place is now a top-of-the-line infinity soaking tub with chromatherapy is set into onyx and a 6’ custom shower with the most magnificent tile work we have ever had the privilege to execute. Working with solid bronze tiles, tumbled marble mosaics, honed marble and travertine, our craftsman custom cut over 180 individual tile patterns – that is amazing! Did we mention that this was all done within 5 months?

The client at this slopeside residence had leased the unit for several years. As a result they had a fairly good idea of what they wanted and needed to be done. This remodel is a very good example of how much can be accomplished without completely gutting a unit. The kitchen and baths were dated and needed to go. The original layout in the kitchen was cramped and was not condusive to an entertaining lifestyle that our clients wanted. We were able to open up the space witout getting involved in costly structural modifications. The master baths at Solitude have enormous soaking tubs that most families never use and are suseptable to freeze-ups. Today couples are looking for larger showers with amenities like steam, benches and multiple water sources. Our design team came up with gorgious design that exceeded our clients hopes.

In this project our client was a builder/ developer who needed a construction management team to complete an ongoing project. CZ was hired to straighten out a project that was a year behind schedule, over budget and lacking on site management. Additionally, we asked to manage the buyer’s involvement and work individually with each buyer to customize their respective units with unique finish packages.
