Built in 1893 by renowned English architect Ernest Coxhead as the summer home of the Whittel family in Alameda’s Gold Coast neighborhood, this early Arts & Crafts style home retains all the features that set it apart as a distinctive addition to Gold Coast architecture. Retained by the current owners for a remodel to serve a modern day family, design plans include: adding a master bathroom, a complete renovation of the kitchen, turning the first-floor powder room into a full bath, adding a 3rd floor dormer office space and another bedroom. In addition to careful attention to historic preservation, our approach with this and every project included early conversations with builders to embed cost-control approaches in the design process.

This stunning facade commands attention from all passersby with its exquisite details. The E-space and breakfast areas allow everyone to be near the kitchen without interfering with meal preparation. Perfect for summer cookouts, the porch and patio provide a place to relax, while the screen porch with outdoor grille and fireplace permits outdoor fun. The great room is open to the foyer and dining room, and adjacent to the study/bedroom. Ceiling treatments accent all three rooms, granting striking detail to each. Two additional bedrooms, each with their own bath, are in a wing of their own for privacy. The master suite sits behind the garage on the opposite side of the home. With a bayed sitting area and tray ceiling, the master bedroom is luxurious. A large corner shower is the highlight to the master bath, and two spacious walk-in closets are an added treat.

The project involves the meticulous completion of a family home renovation, focusing on finalizing the furnishing and accessorizing in a contemporary style. This includes selecting sleek, modern furniture that complements the open floor plan and minimalist design elements. Attention to detail is paramount, with a curated selection of accessories such as abstract art pieces, geometric lighting fixtures, and chic, textured fabrics. The aim is to create a harmonious and inviting atmosphere that blends clean lines, neutral tones, and subtle pops of colour, ensuring every room reflects a cohesive and sophisticated aesthetic. The mesmerizing scenery with its dynamic play of light and shadows provides a unique and everlasting backdropb that enhances the charm and exclusivity of the entire property.

This master bath was the only room in this home we hadn't touched! It turned out to be the last remodel before the homeowners had the opportunity to build their dream home. Along with Interior Designer, Shana Smith, we turned the outdated 90's bath into a modern luxurious on suite. From the custom cabinetry design to the beautifully laid tile backsplash no detail was missed during the design phase. With attention to all the design details taking into consideration during demo and installation this master bath sure is a showstopper.

The interior renovation began with the master bath, which included a glass-partitioned bathtub accented by glass shelving. A drop ceiling that is highlighted by recessed lighting fixtures and finished with minimal trim. The half wall mirror houses a hidden large plasma TV wall screen with audio/visual and remote control elements. The sleek white marble flooring in the hallway leads to a refinished deco staircase and handrail. “Museum” quality paint throughout and refined custom-millwork calls attention to the grand feel of the space. On the exterior, Empire City Construction repointed new mortar joints (cement lines) and replaced decaying bricks in the archways and walls of the corner patio. Preserving the classic hexagon bays and European style arches in this setback terrace of the penthouse suite.

Cabildo Suspension By Artemide SKU# 1192018A Artemide Cabildo fits smoothly into modern décor. A masterful combination of artistic sculpture and soft illumination, the Artemide Cabildo adds grace and beauty to the space. The distinguishing feature of the attractive Cabildo pendant light is the striking lamp body. A sleek and curvy oval shape, the Artemide Cabildo draws attention through a type of optical illusion. Only the left side of the Cabildo pendant lamp's upper portion is brightly accented from the halogen bulb nestled out of sight within the lower portion of the lamp. The right side remains in shadow due to the curve of the lamp, which contradict's the eye's expectation of even brightness. The Artemide Cabildo casts a decorative burst of light up towards the ceiling.

The owners lived in their home as we added this gorgeous contemporary master suite addition in Del Mar. We tore off the roof of the home, added a 2nd story 654 sqft master suite and successfully minimized the disruption to their daily lives. Working as a team throughout the process made this master suite renovation enjoyable for both the client and the TaylorPro team. To quote the owners, "Kerry Taylor and his team were simply outstanding...We have very busy work lives and I need calm and order at home. I very much appreciated how Kerry and his team handled our project especially since we stayed in our home for this entire remodel process. Throughout it all, Kerry was a ready knowledgeable resource and always responsive to anything we raised or simply were curious about. The attention to detail and delivering a quality product was fabulous and sustained throughout the entire process. The finished project was even better than we hoped and we now feel that we have a transformed home. As a special plus, the budget was just as advertised! We were so happy that we actually added additional work to the project that I was planning to do at a later time. We couldn't be happier!"
