After many years of living in the cramped and dark spaces of this poorly laid out Victorian home on the edge of Pacific Heights, this family was ready for a change.  With modest additions and exterior alterations at the rear only, we focused on how to make every square foot count, full of light and life.  We opened up the ground floor through to the rear yard, created a large custom skylight over the dining area and located the kitchen at the hub, extending as a wall of functional cabinetry through to the family room.  Upstairs, we reset the three bedrooms, created a generous master suite and a cute little work-from-home office overlooking the rear yard.  The gorgeous historic façade was refurbished and painted in dramatic tones.
