Description:

This Venice beach bungalow was never updated since first built in the 50's. We gutted the entire interior, increase the home's size by about 50% and finished it in warm, sun washed colors. The maple kitchen cabinets and hardwood match the stainless steel appliances, the doors and windows are all stain grade and the master bathroom has his/hers shower and a large whirlpool tub. This project was featured in a national magazine in a 6-page story!

Tips & Advice:

In this small lot there was a tight limit on the amount of footage we could add. This, coupled with budgetary constrains that precluded a second floor addition to increase the home's size, made it essential that we make the home look bigger on the inside than it actually was. We accomplished that by elimination all walls that were not absolutely essential. The wide open space bely the true size of the home, which is under 1400SF AFTER the addition!
