Our clients had purchased a lot on Lake Charlevoix and they hired us to help them design their family vacation home and that is what we did.
You are welcomed into the home by a traditional double column gabled entry
porch. This classic cottage design features an open floor plan with cathedral
ceilings in the living room and plenty of natural light to capture views. The
fireplace with built-ins serves as a beautiful focal point. The home has a
master suite on the main level as well as another guest suite. The kitchen is
warm and welcoming with a central island and plenty of counter space. A 3/4
bath is located off the mudroom / laundry area which also features a beach
entry to minimize sand coming into the home. Ship-lap finish is throughout
the first floor living spaces. The second floor has two guest bedrooms with
dormers facing the view, a full bathroom, loft area and plenty of storage. We
employed an efficient use of space with four bedrooms and four baths in just
under 3000 square feet. The 2 1/2 car garage has stairs leading to a bonus
room. The exterior finishes are low maintenance using a mixture of lap siding,
shake siding and board and batten detailing. Standing seam metal roofing
emphasizes the window seat and highlights exterior porches. Raised panels
also highlight bump outs and other exterior details.

Joe and Denise purchased a large Tudor style home that never truly fit their needs. While interviewing contractors to replace the roof and stucco on their home, it prompted them to consider a complete remodel. With two young daughters and pets in the home, our clients were convinced they needed an open concept to entertain and enjoy family and friends together. The couple also desired a blend of traditional and contemporary styles with sophisticated finishes for the project.
JRP embarked on a new floor plan design for both stories of the home. The top floor would include a complete rearrangement of the master suite allowing for separate vanities, spacious master shower, soaking tub, and bigger walk-in closet. On the main floor, walls separating the kitchen and formal dining room would come down. Steel beams and new SQFT was added to open the spaces up to one another. Central to the open-concept layout is a breathtaking great room with an expansive 6-panel bi-folding door creating a seamless view to the gorgeous hills. It became an entirely new space with structural changes, additional living space, and all-new finishes, inside and out to embody our clients’ dream home.

An original 1930’s English Tudor with only 2 bedrooms and 1 bath spanning about 1730 sq.ft. was purchased by a family with 2 amazing young kids, we saw the potential of this property to become a wonderful nest for the family to grow.
The plan was to reach a 2550 sq. ft. home with 4 bedroom and 4 baths spanning over 2 stories.
With continuation of the exiting architectural style of the existing home.
A large 1000sq. ft. addition was constructed at the back portion of the house to include the expended master bedroom and a second-floor guest suite with a large observation balcony overlooking the mountains of Angeles Forest.
An L shape staircase leading to the upstairs creates a moment of modern art with an all white walls and ceilings of this vaulted space act as a picture frame for a tall window facing the northern mountains almost as a live landscape painting that changes throughout the different times of day.
Tall high sloped roof created an amazing, vaulted space in the guest suite with 4 uniquely designed windows extruding out with separate gable roof above.
The downstairs bedroom boasts 9’ ceilings, extremely tall windows to enjoy the greenery of the backyard, vertical wood paneling on the walls add a warmth that is not seen very often in today’s new build.
The master bathroom has a showcase 42sq. walk-in shower with its own private south facing window to illuminate the space with natural morning light. A larger format wood siding was using for the vanity backsplash wall and a private water closet for privacy.
In the interior reconfiguration and remodel portion of the project the area serving as a family room was transformed to an additional bedroom with a private bath, a laundry room and hallway.
The old bathroom was divided with a wall and a pocket door into a powder room the leads to a tub room.
The biggest change was the kitchen area, as befitting to the 1930’s the dining room, kitchen, utility room and laundry room were all compartmentalized and enclosed.
We eliminated all these partitions and walls to create a large open kitchen area that is completely open to the vaulted dining room. This way the natural light the washes the kitchen in the morning and the rays of sun that hit the dining room in the afternoon can be shared by the two areas.
The opening to the living room remained only at 8’ to keep a division of space.

This young family purchased a 1990's home in Ponte Vedra Beach and wanted to open up the space, remove arches and modernize the entire home. Micaela Barrancotto, Designer worked with them to achieve their goals. Woodsman cabinetry used as follows:
Perimeter = AOK solid ply Winstead door style painted white – top knobs black metal hardware
Island = Vibe mixed solid ply ends w/ reg construction Kasper door style pained Heron – same knobs
Banquette = Vibe reg construction Kasper door style painted Alabaster – same knobs
Banquette wood top = CWP custom maple top
Master & guest baths = AOK PureStyle Brellin door style in white – same knobs
Tops:
Kitchen ISLAND Tops = Viatera Minuet
Kitchen PERIMETER & Bathroom Tops = Viatera Cotton White
Kitchen Sink = Alfi 36” fireclay sink
Backsplash- marble mesh mounted morrocan pattern with black dots = Home depot
Appliances = Bosch
Fixtures = Moen & Kohler
Floors = Wood Look Vinyl Plank
Construction = Sonshine Builders, inc. (Brien McInerney)

After meeting with Kenny & Laura, we determined that they wanted a clean and effortless design that had elements of nature and healing. We started by determining that they wanted a neutral and natural materials.
The centerpiece of the space was the tub, this stone tub was purchased, and all other elements were carefully selected to enhance the healing and spa experience.
The large format flooring selected is called Lagos Concrete from Arizona Tile. The tile is 24X48 which makes for less grout lines and the minimal chance for the pattern to be broken up with lines.
The shower wall tile is also a 24X48 tile called Cosmic White and laid in a horizontal pattern for ease of maintenance and care. By using this large format, it almost appears to be a slab material.
The pebble chosen is a warm blend which stimulates a healing capability during the showering experience.
The shower fixtures, tub filler and faucets are from Delta Faucet. They are the Trinsic collection.
The shower head is called the Hydro Rain shower head, which diverts to an everyday shower head, but has the option of a rain shower.
Just look at that vanity! The natural veined grained wood from Room & Board completes that natural element and promotes healing.
Haku White quartz countertop and rectangular sinks give a modern element paired with electric mirrors for even light when in use.
Beautiful remodel!

Our clients came to us after purchasing their new home, wanting to update a few things to make it “theirs.” The master bathroom was very out of date, so that was their first priority and the largest part of the project. It had black galaxy granite with surrounding mirrors on all of the walls. They wanted to enlarge the shower, get rid of the huge step-up jacuzzi tub, and change the swing of the door to the closet and water closet. They also wanted all new cabinets and to create his and hers vanity sinks, if possible. We gutted the bathroom and started with a clean slate. Waypoint Shaker panel cabinets were installed and painted linen, with Super White Marble countertops. Payton Sconces in satin nickel were hung on either side of each vanity mirror. Mirabelle undermount vanity sinks were installed, finishing those off with sleek Brizo Virage faucets in brilliance brushed nickel. Capua Multi Perla ceramic tile was used on the shower walls, with the floor tile being Tesoro Nuvoloso Herringbone. A Mirabelle brushed nickel, square, custom showerhead and a Vilamonte brushed nickel handle were the hardware used in their new shower. The main flooring in the bathroom was IWould 6x24 glazed porcelain planks. Our clients love their new space!

The homeowner wanted a distressed look for her island cabinets so she brought in a local tradeswoman to handle this. She did a fabulous job!
This also gives you a great view of these custom glass cabinet pulls!
This home is one of Southport's Historical Cottages. The E.B. Daniel Homestead was built in 1875 and purchased by our client upon her retirement in 2014. The home, now known as "The Mermaid Manor" was in dire need of some TLC.
Tracy, along with her builder Fred Fiss of Green Harmony Homes, had the vision to bring her dream into a reality and to give this home the love it deserved. When Fred introduced Tracy to David she knew he was THE kitchen designer to give her that Dream Kitchen!
Tracy showed David her idea notebook and trusted him to design her dream kitchen and he did just that! They communicated by telephone and email with Tracy only being in Southport four times over the construction period. Not only did David design the kitchen and laundry room, he also installed the cabinetry in the kitchen, laundry, and a makeup table in the master bath.
What we love about this project
- Open and Inviting Kitchen especially perfect for entertaining
- The natural flow from one room to another
- That expansive island with drawer storage and lots of seating
- The Big Chill Appliances are AMAZING
- Italian Glass Subway Tile Backsplash
- Custom Glass Cabinet Pulls

This remodel was for a young, busy family of five. They had purchased the home initially because it was very spacious and included a large garden. After several years, however, it was clear they would have to make some changes as they spent most of their family time together in the too small, galley-style kitchen. We agreed that in order to achieve the open kitchen/ family room they would need to add about 500 square feet. The project was quite involved because, like many typical Mill Valley homes, the house was built on the side of hill and the foundations had to be quite deep. The main idea for the space was inspired by the Bulhaup Kitchen and the need for two ovens and two sinks. The two islands helped create a totally accessible kitchen work area.
Dealing with a large house built in 1978, it was challenging to come up with a style that would work with some of the original windows in other areas that were not in the budget for replacement. The new windows and doors were specifically chosen to let in the light and take in the secluded garden and lush surroundings. The rounded decks softened the rather severe boxy exterior of the residence. The slate floor and steel baseboards were both practical and aesthetically pleasing; their durability and easy upkeep would come in handy for a large family.
The remodel further included a rework of the master bathroom/ closet area as well as all the windows and doors. The bathroom shower was tiled with small stone tiles imported from Sienna, Italy. Throughout the remodel, the taps were from the famous German Durnbroch, the sinks were by Philippe Stark, and the lighting was predominately from Artemide, an Italian lighting manufacturer. The tub and washstands, from Kholer the Bold Look, helped complete the design.

Mackey Builders- Located just north of Highway 24, the neighborhood of Hiller Highlands was rebuilt shortly after being ravaged by the 1991 Oakland fires. The client, who is an artist, recently purchased her two-bedroom, 2-1/2 bath townhouse on Treasure Hill intending to completely renovate the interior before moving in. Her goal was to have a home that reflected her eclectic and modern aesthetics; working with Mackey Builders, Inc., she was able to realize her vision.
Updating the kitchen was a top priority for the owner, as she is a gourmet cook. Collaborating with Stacey to create a design that was streamlined and functional, she chose quartz countertops and a natural stone backsplash to replace the ceramic counters and backsplash original to the home. She exchanged contractor-grade appliances for a Miele double oven, cooktop, and dishwasher, and purchased a Sub-Zero refrigerator with a glass door. Open shelving was integrated into the design so that the owner could display her beautiful ceramic collection. When designing the kitchen's custom cabinetry, Stacey chose a horizontal wood grain to balance the room's high ceilings. He also suggested removing a small bar area in order to expand the kitchen.
Amber Flooring was brought in to resurface the hardwood floors and the Mackey Builders team replaced windows and doors, upgraded the lighting, painted all interior walls, and installed more modern trim details. In the master bath, guest bather, and powder room, they installed new quartz countertops, sinks, and custom cabinets. Bathroom walls were hand-plastered in neutral tones that show subtle variations in color.
In the living room, the wood-burning fireplace, mantel, and built-in shelving were removed and replaced with a sleek high efficiency gas fireplace set into a wall of black large format tile. In keeping the owner's eclectic taste, a new stair railing made of custom-milled maple, wire rope, and acid-etched steel was designed and built. Because the owner loves to draw, Stacey came up with the idea of painting a wall in the dining area with blackboard paint and framing it. He then added a ceramic skull and lights; the finished product is a unique and changeable art installation that is also a focal point for the room.
While this project began as an interior remodel, it expanded to include a fence and siding replacement.
About Mackey Builders, Inc.
Mackey Builders, an award-winning contracting firm, has been in business for over 30 years and is proud to have completed hundreds of remodeling projects in the East Bay, San Francisco, and Marin County.
