VALPARAISO | MENLO PARK

 

This memorable home is a riff on the traditional farmhouse style, but updated for Silicon Valley living. The metal roof and siding, reclaimed wood furnishings, bold colors, vaulted ceilings, and concrete tile fireplace bridge the distance between the heartland of times past, and 21st-century California.

Highlights include:

  • Traditional board and batten siding plays off modern corrugated metal accents, aluminum windows, and standing-seam metal roof

  • L-shaped open plan with no formal dining room, but space for dining table, delineated yet also connected

  • Vaulted ceilings and clerestory windows create a spacious, inspiring interior feel

  • Oversized french doors and large windows for direct connection to the yard and indoor/outdoor living
