Mountain View Ranch Remodel / Addition
The Ranch home is evolving. We're reimagining this classic style for the 21st century, incorporating open layouts, abundant natural light, and eco-conscious design principals.
A Ranch Reimagined
This recently completed project reimagines the timeless appeal of ranch-style architecture, blending the enduring simplicity of its original design with innovative updates for contemporary living.
When a young couple set out to transform their modest ranch home into their dream space, we embarked on an exciting journey of renovation and expansion, ultimately creating a residence that honors its roots while delivering the flexibility and sophistication of a truly modern home.
Expanding the Possibilities
At the heart of the remodel is a carefully executed front expansion, paired with a comprehensive interior reconfiguration. The home now feels open and inviting, yet maintains an intimate atmosphere. The exterior boasts a bold new roofline and clear-stained wood accents, offering a sophisticated twist on classic ranch style and enhancing the home’s visual impact.
Key highlights include:
A larger, modernized two-car garage
New entry foyer, den, and dining area-all featuring airy cathedral ceilings
A reimagined great room with cathedral ceiling, skylights, and a folding glass wall system that opens seamlessly to a new rear deck
A luxurious primary suite with private access to the new rear deck
Seamless Indoor-Outdoor Living
The renovation blurs boundaries between inside and out, extending the living space into the natural surroundings. The new rear deck and folding glass walls invite sunlight and fresh air indoors, while a redesigned front porch enhances curb appeal and creates a welcoming entry experience.
Modern Style, Sustainable Choices
Beyond aesthetics, the project incorporates future-ready features:
Upgraded building envelope for improved efficiency
High-performance, energy-efficient windows and HVAC system
Advanced insulation and modern lighting solutions
This project beautifully illustrates how thoughtful, strategic design can breathe new life into a classic ranch home-transforming it into a modern sanctuary that is both highly efficient and surprisingly spacious. By honoring the home’s original character while embracing contemporary comforts, we’ve created a space perfectly tailored to today’s lifestyle, all while preserving the sense of place and community that makes it truly special.
