Major Renovation in Palo Alto Transforms 1920s Home

 
Posted by Clarum Homes on April 29, 2011 | Categories: Major Renovation, Palo Alto | No comment

Contemporary Kitchen

And finally, we just finished transforming a modest 1,185 square foot 1920’s period home into a super energy-efficient passive home inspired contemporary three bedroom home with an open floor plan designed for today’s family. The renovation included adding super insulation, air tight envelope, heat recovery ventilation, solar power, passive solar hot water and a host of crisp and modern but subtle stone and wood finishes and custom built-ins.

The home is now one of the nicest homes on the block.

Check out the photos on our Renovations page.
