Sedona is home to people from around the world because of it's beautiful red rock mountain scenery, high desert climate, good weather and diverse community. Most residents have made a conscience choice to be here. Good buildable land is scarce so may people purchase older homes and update them in style and performance before moving in. The industry often calls these project "whole house remodels".
This home was originally built in the 70's and is located in a prestigious neighborhood beautiful views that overlook mountains and City of Sedona. It was in need of a total makeover, inside and out. The exterior of the home was transformed by removing the outdated wood and brick cladding and replacing it stucco and stone. The roof was repaired to extend it life. Windows were replaced with an energy efficient wood clad system.
Every room of the home was preplanned and remodeled to make it flow better for a modern lifestyle. A guest suite was added to the back of the existing garage to make a total of three guest suites and a master bedroom suite. The existing enclosed kitchen was opened up to create a true "great room" with access to the deck and the views. The windows and doors to the view were raised up to capture more light and scenery. An outdated brick fireplace was covered with mahogany panels and porcelain tiles to update the style. All floors were replaced with durable ceramic flooring. Outdated plumbing, appliances, lighting fixtures, cabinets and hand rails were replaced. The home was completely refurnished and decorated by the home owner in a style the fits the architectural intent.
The scope for a "whole house remodel" is much like the design of a custom home. It takes a full team of professionals to do it properly. The home owners have a second home out of state and split their time away. They were able to assemble a team that included Sustainable Sedona Residentail Design, Biermann Construction as the General Contractor, a landscape designer, and structural engineer to take charge in thier absence. The collaboration worked well!

Gorgeous master bath finished with Dal-Tile's Fabrique porcelain tile in the color Noir Linen polished. Tile size is 12"x24" installed in a brick joint pattern. The floor boasts underfloor heating on a timed thermostat.

At 19 Irving Avenue, the dining room is less a formal destination and more a moment within the flow of the home—an intentional pause where gathering, light, and architecture come together in quiet balance.

Positioned within the open plan, the dining space feels naturally connected rather than separated. It sits comfortably between the kitchen and living areas, allowing conversation and movement to carry effortlessly through the home. There’s no rigid boundary—just a subtle transition defined by sightlines, proportions, and the rhythm of the architecture.
Light plays a central role here. Surrounded by glass, the dining room is constantly shifting—bright and airy during the day, then more intimate as the light softens in the evening. Views outward become part of the experience, reinforcing Eichler’s idea that even the most everyday moments—like sharing a meal—should feel connected to the natural environment.
The design itself is restrained and purposeful. Clean lines and an absence of excess allow the space to feel open and uncluttered, while the scale remains comfortable and human. It’s easy to imagine long, casual dinners unfolding here, with the boundaries between inside and out quietly disappearing.
In many ways, the dining room reflects Eichler’s broader philosophy: that a home doesn’t need formal separation to feel complete. Instead, it thrives on connection—between spaces, between people, and between architecture and the world just beyond the glass.

The project involved a spacious 900 sq. ft. master suite addition, complemented by an expanded kitchen and dining area. What began as a simple addition evolved into a complete home remodel, including a guest bathroom and adjacent his-and-her offices.
The design vision centered on clean, modern lines combined with warm, earthy tones and natural materials.
In the kitchen, the absence of upper cabinets creates a minimalist feel, with sleek floating shelves illuminated by built-in LED lights. The hood was integrated into the ceiling/wall, finished with drywall and plaster to seamlessly blend into the space, making it almost invisible. A semi-transparent barn door conceals the bar and laundry area, which were thoughtfully incorporated into the kitchen design.
The master suite features a spacious bathroom with custom details, including a floating vanity designed to exact specifications. The 4” thick waterfall countertop wraps around the vanity for a refined look. The mirrors, also functional as storage, feature hidden medicine cabinets built directly into the wall.
The bathroom floor is lined with warm beige tiles, complemented by 3D peach-colored tiles in the shower and vanity wall, adding texture and warmth to the space. An elegant architectural light fixture, positioned between the two mirrors, enhances the overall ambiance.

Imagine stepping into your newly remodeled master bathroom, and the first thing that catches your eye is the stunning free-standing tub. Its sleek, modern design adds an air of luxury and relaxation to the space. Positioned strategically in the room, it becomes a focal point, inviting you to unwind and indulge in a soothing bath after a long day.

Its rich tones bring warmth and natural beauty into the room, contrasting beautifully with the clean lines of the tub and other fixtures. The wood grain adds texture and character, creating a cozy atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. One of the most striking features of the remodel is the open concept layout. The absence of visual barriers makes the room feel more expansive and airy, enhancing the overall sense of relaxation and tranquility. You can move freely throughout the space, enjoying the seamless flow from one area to another. But perhaps the pièce de résistance is the full wall of tiles that adorns one side of the bathroom. The tiles, with their intricate patterns or serene monochromatic hues, create a stunning backdrop that ties the entire design together. They add depth and visual interest to the room, elevating its aesthetic appeal and making it truly unforgettable. In essence, your master bathroom remodel is a harmonious blend of luxury, functionality, and style. It's a space where you can escape the stresses of everyday life and indulge in moments of pure relaxation and rejuvenation.
