Glenside Home Types

The Homes Fred Works In Around Glenside

Craftsman Bungalows

The 1910s–1930s Craftsman bungalows throughout Glenside are Fred's specialty — original built-ins, exposed beams, period millwork, natural materials. Fred restores and extends these details rather than covering them up.

Colonial Revivals

The larger Colonial Revival homes in the Glenside area have their own character — formal proportions, detailed millwork, original windows worth restoring. Fred understands the architectural language and designs renovations that belong to the house.

Early 20th Century Foursquares

The American Foursquare homes throughout Abington Township and Glenside are generous, well-built houses that respond beautifully to thoughtful renovation. Fred has renovated many of these homes and understands their specific construction.
