The goal for this whole
house remodel was to upgrade and expand a neglected, older Santa Barbara
house. Only the living room and garage of this 1,150 square foot, two
bedroom, two bath home remained after demolition. Extensive remodeling
of the main floor included a new entry porch, kitchen, bathroom and two
bedrooms. The second story addition created a master bedroom suite. With
new finishes inside and out, the finished project is a high quality,
high performance, 2,046 sq. ft. home. The combination of a design for
contemporary living with high quality, low-impact materials, and high
performance, energy efficient systems has transformed a neglected former
rental property Into an elegant, resource efficient, comfortable
Craftsman style home the owners will enjoy for years to come.
