The addition of a two-story glassed-in entry opens up a formerly obscured spectacular view and brings daylight deep into both floor levels. Relocation of the stairway to the front corner enlarges the kitchen and adds utility to the back entry hall.

A great location and mountain/lake view are taken advantage of in this substantial remodel, designed for clients who plan to stay here for the rest of their lives. There is a level entry and an accessible bedroom suite on the main floor, presently used as a den. The original house was taken down to the floor boards, and the foundation was reused, and expanded, for the new work.
