West Hills Whole Home Remodel

This Portland whole home remodel was completed as part of an insurance restoration after a tree fell on the home. The house was taken down to the studs and rebuilt with all new materials, providing our design team with a unique opportunity to showcase what we can do with a blank slate. While preserving the character—and stunning views—of this home, we integrated custom craftsmanship and distinctive design features throughout.

Project Goals:
-Restore the home to pre-loss condition after catastrophic tree damage - The project involved extensive restoration work after a tree fell on the house, hitting every ridge point and causing significant structural damage.

-Update and modernize the kitchen while maintaining character - The team reconfigured the kitchen layout, installed engineered quartz countertops with matching backsplash, and added a larger SubZero refrigerator to replace an underutilized wet bar area.

-Rebuild the primary bathroom with enhanced features - The bathroom was completely gutted and rebuilt with marble tile flooring, custom-depth shower niches, dual shower heads, and a new bidet with dedicated electrical circuit.

-Restore architectural details while improving functionality - The restoration included rebuilding the inset cabinetry in the dining room that had been removed during remediation.

-Incorporate custom solutions for unique architectural challenges - The team designed around structural constraints like a stairwell beneath the kitchen cabinets, requiring a complete custom kitchen cabinet package.
