This modern home was created by remodeling a traditional 1970s Spanish style bungalow on a modest budget, and represents the ideal merger of Central Coast outdoor and indoor living. The house was completely re-stuccoed with smooth Santa Barbara style stucco. The inside was essentially gutted and rebuilt creating an open living/dining/kitchen space designed to "not look like a kitchen." Kitchen cabinets are covered with Italian laminate, the island melds a custom-designed dining table that seats six comfortably with the stainless steel coujter-top. Cabinets were designed with special inserts to hold dishes and utensils to minimize clutter. New windows and sliding doors were added throughout to create a smooth flow between indoors and outdoors. Every room opens onto its own outdoor space, each with its own custom-designed water feature. The house was designed to accommodate the owners' special collection of art and collectible objects. The home is furnished with an eclectic collection of the owners' special mid-century pieces, new items and items found by shopping antique and consignment stores during construction. Of note is the use of the owners' collection of antique apothecary jars and original drawings. The antique Two French baguette bakery paddles found in a local consignment store were custom mounted to accent the kitchen wall with its large window added to frame the view of the distant hills, adding to the feeling of openness. The back yard has a complete outdoor kitchen with a custom-designed table, an 8 foot fire pit an outdoor couch, and a Bullfrog hot-tub/spa that overlooks open space filled with mature oak trees. The house was completely insulated and refitted with modern smart- lighting throughout, Cedar on the living room ceiling, entry-way and bedroom walls blends with cedar cladding on outdoor walls. Low voltage lighting illuminates the landscaping. The house was also equipped with solar panels. "Before" photos appear at the end of uploaded photos.
