This addition to a single-family residence expands and elevates the small home of a growing family. New character is given to the house as it extends toward the street, with a strong roofline, large folding doors and deck. A master bedroom, bathroom and new living room are added without disturbing the functions of the existing house, allowing the family to live in place during construction. The result provides much needed living space that flows seamlessly between inside and out, old and new.
