Both of these structures are proposed to be demolished and a new two-story residence and detached garage and workshop built in their place. The proposed new two-story residence would contain four bedrooms and three bathrooms, and would be a total of approximately 2,422 square feet in size, excluding 147 square feet of porch and patio area. The detached garage and workshop would add an additional 378 square feet to the property for a total FAL of 2,800 square feet, the maximum allowed on the property. The proposal would conform to development regulations regarding setbacks, parking, lot coverage, building height, and daylight plane. The applicants have been diligent during the design process in presenting evolving design ideas to staff.
Staff feels that the proposal presents an architectural style that is coherent and consistent.
The roof materials would be black composition shake. The walls would be natural cedar shingle siding. The windows would be double-hung wood windows, and the upper floor windows would be glazed to reduce impacts on neighbor s privacy. In addition, the windows on the left side elevation that look into the stairway would use obscured glass art in order to provide light yet protect privacy. In addition, the Allied Arts Guild is located across the street from the project site.
