Tudor Estate

The exterior facade of the main house was designed using clink brick. Clink brick, once considered secondary by-product in the brick-making process, is now very rare. The clink birck on the additions, which matches the original main house, was created by a specialty brick boutique.

Large expansive lawns surround this Tudor home.

The garage should be a place to allow those industrial creative juices flowing and we created the perfect area with marble flooring and large, open spaces.

The upstairs and downstairs steel casement windows on either side of the front door are original.

The new wooden front door with glass side panels is reminiscent of the style of the original front door. The original front door had been replaced with French doors when the Kipps purchased the house.

The original stones used to built this home were taken from Mount Baldy in Claremont, CA. For the additions, the forest service granted a permit to gather more stone from the same area.

The Gardener’s Cottage and Greenhouse are connected to the Main House by wood-trellised patios with stone pillars, echoing the stonework found throughout the rest of the property.

A new larger kitchen replaces the bad patchwork remodels done over the years. More storage, an island and upgraded appliances were added as a result.

Cabinetry in the kitchen is “furniture style.” Each cabinet and drawer designed by the architect is custom-fitted and flush-mounted, adding a level of complexity to the design. This style of cabinetry not only evokes a sense of history and tradition, but also is an example of the craftsmanship and detail found through-out the house.
