Palos Verdes Craftsman
Palos Verdes, CA
New Construction: 3,968 SF
Date completed: 2019
This 4-bedroom, 4-1/2 bathroom new construction provided the opportunity to create an innovative model for a larger family home, in an approachable, updated Craftsman style.
Nestled into the Valmonte school neighborhood, the transitional-style house was designed with appropriate volume, massing, height, and scale to fit comfortably within this enclave. The existing grade was lowered by 2 feet to reduce the home’s profile, and the large jacaranda tree in the front yard preserved, in respect for the tranquil neighborhood setting.
Inside, an expansive daylit Kitchen and Family Room open onto an Entertaining Patio with outdoor kitchen and fire pit, and an extensive backyard beyond. The bedrooms and bathrooms are generously proportioned with ample natural light, reflecting an updated take on traditional Craftsman style. The Master Suite offers open views of the city lights across the Los Angeles basin, and its own private balcony for stargazing.
