ALBERTA LOOKOUT RESIDENCE

This small, yet lofty and light-filled custom home is one of our favorites.  This modestly sized urban home features cozy spaces like a window-filled sleeping berth, a coffee porch for two, and a screened-in sleeping porch that offer breezy open air respite throughout.  Outside, large eaves distinguish the home’s exterior just enough, while classic craftsmen details allow for a harmonious blend with the neighborhood.  Another client goal for the house was for flexibility within a small footprint.  The efficient, second floor kitchen incorporates small spaces for dining and socializing, while the first floor separate guest accommodations provide peaceful privacy for visitors – or for use as additional flex space for social gatherings.  Interior windows, multi-level porches and a stairway with children’s books tucked under it round out the client’s unique dream list.
