Charych-Dunkle Remodel & Addition, Albany, California

This remodel was part of a second-story addition to a small “Mid-century Moderne” home. Dark and cramped, the original home was poorly laid out and the only access to the large rear deck was through the master bedroom. By removing most of the interior walls and relocating the master bedroom upstairs, the kitchen was expanded to the rear of the home where a new french door leads to the deck. The fireplace was moved to an exterior wall with matching stained glass windows. New windows throughout the home take advantage of breathtaking views and the stair atrium features a built-in window seat and picture window with views of the East Bay hills.
