Gut Remodel Historic Spanish Style Home n Santa Monica

This beautiful 1915, Spanish style home in Santa Monica, California, had beautiful bones but was woefully underbuilt – especially by today’s standards. Watch as the entire house is gutted to the studs – and even half of those were rotten – and built into a fabulous new home.
This project actually includes new construction – a pool house – as well as the gut remodel of the main house.

Featured in “Traditional Home” with Interior Design by Bonesteel Trout Hall, and Architectural Design by Otis Bradley, this home was originally designed by Gerard Colcord.  Colcord was a sought after Architect in Los Angeles known for his simple elegance in capturing homes with historical relevance.  This particular home was owned by Harrison Ford for 30 years before the new owners put their own style on the home.

Addition Analysis – how and where we can add space

Here are the areas where we might build – possibly moving garage forward to allow additional space behind the garage and space on the south end. This might work out nicely allowing us to keep the existing kitchen where it is – Savings ! – create a better flow.
