BARTON & GRAHAM RENOVATED BEAUTY IN CASA VIEW OAKS 

Open house: Sunday, August 13, 2-4 p.m. 

We love the work of Casey Barton and Raymond Graham, two home renovators extraordinaire. Well, they’ve done it again at 2441 Hartline Dr. in Casa View Oaks, near Gus Thomasson and Ferguson roads. They’ve opened up the floorplan of this modest home and made it feel modern, open, and welcoming with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and 1,277 square feet, built in 1954.

Those beautiful hardwoods are original refinished blended seamlessly with new oak ones — what a luxury in a home in this price range. Love the design flair, like that contemporary chandelier in the dining room and graphic wallpaper in the entryway. The kitchen is another luxe space in a budget-friendly home, with quartz countertops, lovely gray cabinets, a built-in wine rack, white subway tile backsplash in a stack bond pattern, and stainless steel appliances, including a gas range. Other features include a new laundry room, new HVAC and water heater, fresh paint inside and out, new LED lighting, and a big 15-by-20 wood deck in back.
