Adding onto, or updating a postwar 20th century home?  Here’s an upgrade that may be worth the investment.

Vaulted Ceilings or other taller spaces:

20th century postwar homes often have trouble competing with their newer counterparts in the market place, because of their relative lack of vertical height in spaces within the envelope.
