Highlights of this transformative remodel include a distinct and welcoming front porch and all-new entryway that represents an architectural solution to the homeowners’ desire to depart from original ranch appearances without major structural changes. The new look appeals to the homeowners’ East Coast sensibilities, as well, while maintaining true California themes, also captured in garden and outdoor living spaces.
