This project involves the renovation and expansion of a 1930’s English Gothic style home by Gast Architects, located in San Francisco, California. From the back of the property, the home opens out to a spacious courtyard. The architecture has been completely renovated, yet respects the historical heritage of this home. The dining and living rooms boast beautiful garden views through floor-to-ceiling steel framed windows and doors — offering exterior trellising for privacy and shading.
A brand new staircase design surrounds a built-in hutch, which connects the renovated kitchen and dining areas with the bedroom above and the garage and basement storage, wine cellar and laundry room below. Reconfigured rooms and upgraded systems throughout the home helps to bring it into the current day.

What We Love: This English gothic style home offers an inspiring new interior layout, decorated with beautiful furnishings and accessories. We are especially loving the expansive windows framing views out to the backyard gardens, offering a beautiful connection to nature. The light-filled interior spaces are warm and comfortable, ideal for living and entertaining.
