Historic Residence in the Heart of Mission Hills Gets Craftsman Style Companion House

Home Details
Location: Mission Hills
Project: Residential Restoration

After many years of good memories, historic homeowners in Mission Hills, CA were ready to have a refreshed look with more space. Rather than expand their 2,000 square foot Arts & Crafts style home, they decided to add a companion guest house to better accommodate frequent visits by friends and family.

ZMK Construction was hired for a complete exterior restoration, design-build and interior design.

Project Details
•   A complete exterior “rehabilitation” of 2,000 square foot historic home.

•   Addition of a 2-story, 1,400 square foot companion guest house

•   Master bedroom on second floor

•   One bedroom, one bathroom on first floor

•   Luxury garage

•   Full design and landscape of residential gardens, including elegant and private breezeway between houses.

•   Interior design elements that balance craftsman architecture with contemporary accents.

•   Compliance with San Diego Historic Board secretary of interior standards.

Although the homeowners intended for their new addition to be a place for visitors, they loved it so much they made it their primary residence. A place to make more memories with their growing family.
