Your Local Cheltenham Contractor

Victorian & Edwardian Homes Renovated With Care

Cheltenham Township has one of the most diverse and architecturally rich housing stocks in Montgomery County — Victorian and Edwardian homes in Wyncote, mid-century properties in Elkins Park, and a range of early twentieth century construction throughout the township. These are homes built with genuine craftsmanship, and they deserve renovation contractors who match that standard.

Fred Beese Builds serves Cheltenham Township from Wyndmoor, a short drive through the corridor. Fred's experience with the specific construction types of this area — Victorian plaster walls, Edwardian millwork, original hardwood floors — makes him well-suited for the renovation work these homes require. Kitchen remodeling, bathroom renovation, custom woodworking, historic restoration — Fred does all of it at the standard Cheltenham homes deserve.

For Cheltenham Township homeowners who want quality over speed, Fred is worth the call.

The Homes Fred Works In Around Cheltenham

Victorian & Edwardian Homes in Wyncote

Wyncote has a remarkable concentration of late Victorian and Edwardian homes — many with original plaster, elaborate millwork, period hardware, and the kind of architectural detail that rewards preservation rather than replacement.

Early 20th Century Construction

The early twentieth century homes throughout Cheltenham Township represent solid, well-built construction with original hardwood floors, wood windows worth restoring, and proportions that newer construction rarely matches.

Mid-Century Homes in Elkins Park

Elkins Park's mid-century housing stock — some influenced by the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Beth Sholom synagogue nearby — offers interesting renovation opportunities where clean lines and natural materials meet the craftsman's hand.
