Cardiff by the Sea

Contemporary

On a bluff top over looking Swami’s, Streamline Development’s design-build team transformed  an existing rental property from the 1950’s into a beautiful new contemporary beach cottage.  We worked closely with our client and saw the diamond in the rough and preserved the cool clean lines of the original post modern home.   With thoughtful mitigation to  termite and dry rot damage, we were able to incorporate the existing footprint and raised foundation into the proposed design. Streamline makes the difficult challenge inherent in Coastal Development easy on our Clients, and this home is a great example. A passive solar design was integrated maximizing its southern exposure of the lot.  By adding a second fireplace outdoors, we were able to double the living space and make the original small home feel twice the size. We added youth and character to the neighborhood by building a 2 story tree house utilizing old skateboard decks for stairs.

This project was selected and showcased by Coastal Home Magazine and featured a very satisfied and happy client in their new, warm, ocean view home.
