2 Story Remodel and Addition. Original 2 bedroom & 1 bath house was purchased for $1.43 Million. Upon completion of the remodel and addition it sold 1 week on the market for $3.5 Million. The developer wished a Traditional East Coast Martha Vineyard style house.

The house has all custom wood details, paneling & high ceilings thru out. Walnut wood floors. 2-story entry foyer which leads to elegant entertainment rooms. Spacious family room off the kitchen and includes breakfast area & entertainment center. Gourmet kitchen has marble & bluestone counter tops, Wolf Range, Sub-Zero Refrigerator / Freezer, Coffee center, and Bosch Dishwasher. Also a entry mud room from the 2 car garage. Expansive porches front & rear; Huge grassy yard w/ room for future pool.

Upstairs are Four bedrooms and three bathrooms, including a laundry room. The master bedroom has vaulted ceiling and front Master deck with views of the Pacific Ocean. The Master bathroom was styled with all white marble, with a large walk in shower and tub. The The rear bedroom also has a view of the pacific ocean and LAX airport on clear days.

I had to work closing with the Pacific Palisades Architectural review board and their tight guidelines for building area. The decks count as half of allowed area, so I designed large deck areas, covered and non covered to increase the usable area for sitting and entertainment.
