The Residence

Designed around the view.

Three bedrooms plus an office that can be a fourth, 3½ baths, and 2,433 square feet in the main residence, with a 377-square-foot junior ADU with its own full bath, and a 600-square-foot roof deck. Rebuilt from the foundation up, 2025–2026.

At 2335 Sunset Drive, the main living spaces face the Pacific and open to the outdoors. The redevelopment brings together warm materials, a roof deck above the three-car garage, and a comprehensive reconstruction of the structure and building systems.

Facing the Pacific

The main floor holds three bedrooms, an office, and the principal living spaces. The great room opens to the outdoors through a nine-foot bifold and French doors, the kitchen's casual dining area through two eleven-foot bifold systems, and the primary suite through a ten-foot French door with sidelites. All three face the ocean under ten-foot cove ceilings. Roughly 620 square feet of black aluminum glazing across 25 windows and doors, about a quarter of the floor area, brings daylight into the rooms, while the elevated main floor keeps them separated from the street.

The plan

The main level brings together the living spaces, three bedrooms, and an office. The entrance, three-car garage, and junior ADU occupy the street level.

Materials chosen with intention

The owners' background is in construction, and it shows in the selections. Wide-plank wire-brushed white oak floors run through the principal rooms and bedrooms. Walls meet floors and door jambs with shadow-gap reveals rather than casing and baseboards, so the rooms read as clean planes. Interior doors are seven feet tall and solid-core, hung on matte-black lever hardware. The kitchen is quartersawn white oak cabinetry with plywood boxes, topped in Taj Mahal quartzite that runs from the counter to the ceiling behind the range. Bathrooms feature large-format tile, with a freestanding soaking tub in the primary bath.

The stair

Between the two levels, a Viewrail floating staircase turns ninety degrees on a single black-steel stringer, with white oak treads matched to the floor and LED lighting under each tread. It sits in front of a single twelve-lite fixed window 7'-3" wide and 17'-6" tall, bringing daylight into the stairwell, with integrated tread lighting highlighting the stair after dark. The wall it climbs is faced full height in the same Evolve stone veneer as the exterior.

The garage, the roof deck, and the junior ADU

Roof deck, looking back into the house · Artist's rendering — not a photograph.

The attached three-car garage, added in the redevelopment, has 13'-6" of clear interior height under three eight-by-eight doors with transom windows, and a two-stop dumbwaiter that carries groceries from the car to the kitchen counter. Above it, a 600-square-foot roof deck in TimberTech Weathered Teak with a rod railing gives the house a second outdoor room with the same view as the great room. Tucked into the plan is a 377-square-foot junior ADU with its own full kitchen, full bath, and independent heating and cooling. The Floor Plans page shows it two ways: as the studio it is, and furnished as a media room.

The reconstruction

The reconstruction extends from foundation and structural work to the systems serving the house. The scope includes:

A Class A roof with Presidential-style architectural shingles.
Teza black aluminum windows and doors with Low-E tempered insulated glass.
Heat-pump heating and cooling with variable-speed fan coils for the residence, and a separate ductless system for the junior ADU.
200-amp electrical service and wiring, with LED architectural lighting throughout.
Domestic water supply and drainage systems replaced, with a 75-gallon water heater on a timed recirculating pump.
NFPA 13D fire sprinklers with concealed heads throughout the residence and the junior ADU.
One-hour-rated exterior wall assemblies, fire-resistant attic vents, and fiber-cement siding.
A waterproofed roof-deck assembly beneath the TimberTech decking.

Dated progress, with photographs, is on the Progress page.

Taj Mahal

The kitchen

Quartersawn white oak cabinetry in a Biscotti finish, Taj Mahal quartzite carried from the counter to the ceiling behind the range, a walk-through pantry, glass display cabinets at each end of the run, and a Samsung appliance package with a 51-bottle dual-zone wine cooler.

Floors and cabinetry

Wide-plank wire-brushed white oak flooring in a Wheat finish runs through the principal rooms and bedrooms: 7½-inch planks with a 3 mm wear layer on a Baltic birch core. The cabinetry is quartersawn white oak in a Biscotti finish. Both are shown here from the actual samples, photographed in daylight.
