Addition

Sebastopol, California

2008

Project Features:

 

Shakertown Shingles, Redwood T&G and Ipe Decking, Aluminum Clad Wood Doors and Windows

Project Narrative:

 

The original structure was built before 1907 although there were old newspapers with that date buried in the walls.  The existing residence lies within the Scenic Resource District of Sonoma County so the goal of this project was to nestle the addition into the hillside to reduce the massing as seen from the street.  Existing landscaping was augmented with new to screen the addition from the street further de-emphasizing the size of the project.

Special Feature:

 

The new covered front entry was set back to create an alcove that not only protects visitors from the elements but also protects the new cherry entry doors from direct sunlight.
