Many old homes in the New England area have closed off rooms that restrict light and traffic flow. Creating an open floor plan allows for more functionality and a brighter living area. Typically, creating these open floors plans includes a kitchen renovation and potentially work in the dining room, 1st floor bath, and the living room. This type of work ranges from $90k to $150k.
