Windermere Expansion: Renew and Embellish

Set in the Windermere neighborhood of Seattle, this colonial house received a big re-vamp by the Artizan Group.

In addition to a bright new coat of paint and added shutters, the house was expanded out to the side with a new garage topped by a lovely master bedroom. Taking a walk around back you will find an extended porch and back patio including outdoor fireplace.

Along with the add on, the entry was redone, involving building up of the steps and foundation as well as constructing an entire portico on the face of the house.

Garage Addition with Master bedroom above

The house was extended to the side, first building the garage and then adding a master bedroom above.

 Back of house Extension

Part of this project involved bumping out a portion of the house on the back side. The Artizan group dug out and laid the foundation in preparation for the garage and master bedroom

Outdoor Entertaining

Stainless steel outdoor glass fireplace surrounded by Napa Valley Cast Stone provides a homey atmosphere on the back patio. Along with the fireplace are heaters mounted in the ceiling to provide a comfortable area to sit and enjoy the beautiful Pacific Northwest year round.

Portico

In preparation for a redone entryway, the Artizan Group built a full foundation at the front of the house before beginning construction on the Italian inspired portico.  The entry leads to a TruStile three panel door framed with a copper roof and colonial columns seemlessly blending with the original architecture and brick walkway.
