Honoring History While Building the Future: North River Builders, Inc.
As we approach the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution, it seems appropriate to take a moment to reflect on the historical roots of our community, and our role in preserving its legacy through craftsmanship and dedication to preserving buildings of historical value.
North River Builders, Inc. is proud to call Bedford, MA, home. Our office is located in Bedford’s Historic District, in our very own NRB-renovated antique, located along the storied Freedom Trail between Concord & Lexington – the path of the Minutemen as they marched toward Concord on April 19, 1775, the day that changed the course of history with “the shot heard round the world.” (Fun fact: the Bedford Flag, the oldest flag known to exist in the US, was carried into battle that day by a Bedford Minuteman).
Our expertise in antique home remodeling, renovations, and structural repairs have earned the trust of architects and antique homeowners. Recently we were fortunate enough to be called upon to lend our expertise in the renovation of two historically significant homes within the Minuteman National Park in Concord.
There is something truly special about restoring historic elements in a home with a story to tell. The design and build quality evident in so many New England homes is a testament to the craftsmanship of the past. We take great pride in honoring their intent and maintaining a home’s authenticity through careful planning and thoughtful improvements.
Our love for history extends beyond our projects. As we prepare to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution alongside our neighbors in Concord and Lexington, we’re reminded of the significance of our location and the responsibility that comes with working in such a historically rich area. We’re not just builders, we are stewards of history, ensuring that homes and structures that stood during the birth of our nation continue to stand for generations to come.
Whether we are carefully restoring centuries-old beams or seamlessly integrating period-appropriate details into a remodel, our team approaches every project with respect for the past and an eye toward the future. We’re honored to contribute to the preservation of New England’s architectural heritage and look forward to celebrating this milestone anniversary with our community.
If you share our passion for history and craftsmanship, or if you have a home that needs expert care (no matter its age or style), we would love to hear from you.
