Rancher Renovation Addition with Coastal Hollywood Glam

This 70’s-era L-shaped rancher was taken back to the studs and expanded by 400 sq ft with two rear additions. The layout was reworked for a growing family, including an extended den and open-concept living, plus a front room converted into a code-compliant single-car garage. Vaulted ceilings and skylights brighten the home, while the primary suite adds a 4-piece ensuite and patio access. Updated millwork, stone, and tile blend Hollywood glam with relaxed West Coast comfort.

THE OBJECTIVE

To create living space for a growing family with convertible bonus space; reclaim the front room as a single car garage; add more natural light; a custom covered patio with multiple access points; a larger mastersuite with a full piece ensuite.

HOW IT WAS ACHIEVED

The central wall was removed and the kitchen was relocated to the original living room. Vaulted ceilings with flared skylights were added to the proposed dining room and ensuite to create more natural light. A flex-space is added and 2 rear additions extend the mastersuite and the original living room by 400 SF. The new 4 piece ensuite completes a reconfigured master suite with a walk-in closet. The original non-conforming front room is converted back to a new garage, built to code.
