Craftsman Whole House Remodel with Second Level Addition
Craftsman Whole House Remodel with Second Level Addition

Street facade, house just completed. Original house included the front porch and low roof. The original front porch remains, but finishes were updated. A second level, the side addition (carport and the room above) and an extension to the back of the home were added. Owner's wanted me to respect the existing house and the character of the older neighborhood, so that the finished home would still fit into its context.

Distinctive Eichler home elements, such as the rear floor-to-ceiling glazing, in-floor radiant heating, and thin projecting roof eaves, were restored and modernized to maintain design integrity and improve performance. Photography: Sharon Risedorph

Continuing on from past works at this beautiful and finely kept residence, Petro Builders was employed to install a glass-walled lift and bathroom extension. In a simultaneously bold and elegant design by Claire Stevens, the new work had to match in seamlessly with the existing house. This required the careful sourcing of matching stone tiles and strict attention to detail at both the design and construction stages of the project. From as early as the demolition and set-out stages, careful foresight was required to work within the tight constraints of this project, with the new design and existing structure offering only very narrow tolerances. True to form, our site supervisor Stefan went above and beyond to execute the project.

The width of the the carport addition was constrained by code setbacks, to such a degree that the car the house was designed around has to be backed into its spot. The detail above the carport opening echoes the front porch trim. Window at top gable brings a little light into the attic. Custom-made cypress screens cover the front facade's double-hung windows.
