Inspiration for a french country beige two-story stone exterior home remodel

Front exterior of a historic home featuring light blue siding, decorative gable woodwork, shingle accents, and a covered front porch with brick steps.

The main house is linked to the carriage house via a bridge appointed with cubbies, hooks and a bench so that it also functions as a mudroom. The passage below the bridge allows a convenient outdoor connection between the back and side yards.

Within the upper level beneath the gable roof, which had the peak clipped off in a former attic to accommodate lateral structural ties, we restructured the ridge to create the crisp peaked ceiling of the gable roof spanning the house lengthwise, front to back. This linear space frames views to the north toward downtown San Francisco. On either side of this space are instances of borrowed views and daylight from twin pairs of skylights that flank the gable.

Looking at this home today, you would never know that the project began as a poorly maintained duplex. Luckily, the homeowners saw past the worn façade and engaged our team to uncover and update the Victorian gem that lay underneath. Taking special care to preserve the historical integrity of the 100-year-old floor plan, we returned the home back to its original glory as a grand, single family home. The project included many renovations, both small and large, including the addition of a a wraparound porch to bring the façade closer to the street, a gable with custom scrollwork to accent the new front door, and a more substantial balustrade. Windows were added to bring in more light and some interior walls were removed to open up the public spaces to accommodate the family’s lifestyle.
