R. Balko & Allie Ward Design
Roger Balko has been building and creating for as long as he can remember, a pursuit that perfectly suits his blend of creative energy and craftsmanship. His career has spanned sculpting, millwork, and custom building, consistently delivering luxury products to commissioning clients. Partnering with Allie Ward Design, Roger combined his expertise with Allie’s eye for historic integrity and functional beauty to accomplish the stunning transformation of 566 Church Street. Located in the highly coveted West Side School district, this 6-bedroom, 5-bathroom home—including a private in-law suite—was meticulously renovated by Roger Balko in 2022. Through a down-to-the-studs renovation, the team preserved the home’s original historic charm while introducing premium finishes and cutting-edge design. Perfectly situated within walking distance of Marietta Square, this property offers convenient access to boutique shopping, award-winning restaurants, and vibrant community events, making it the ideal blend of modern luxury and timeless character.
