Home Additions In Rhinelander, WI

The finished addition is a room that changes the arithmetic of the house. A first-floor primary suite so nobody negotiates the stairs at seventy-five. 

A four-season room facing the water that stays warm in January. An in-law suite with its own bath and its own door, so three generations share a roof without sharing a bathroom schedule. 

Rhinelander’s housing stock is older than most of Wisconsin’s. The city’s own comprehensive plan counts more than sixty percent of homes here as built before 1970, with better than a fifth predating 1940. 

Those houses were framed by people who knew what they were doing, in an era when families needed less square footage and heated it with less. Adding to them is a rewarding kind of work, provided somebody checks the existing structure before drawing anything. 

Oneida County also skews older than the state, with a median age well past fifty and roughly twenty-seven percent of residents over sixty-five. 

That shows up on our schedule as suites, wider doorways, accessible baths, and single-level living.
