West Seattle Aging in place

Deep energy retrofit for aging in place

Living large in a small home….this childhood home in West Seattle is renovated from the ground up plus a thoughtful bedroom addition.  All for aging in place in a comfortable, sunny space.  This home had previously been remodeled in the middle of the twentieth century.  We are bringing up to date, by completely reworking the home from the studs out.  In some places, even some foundation needed to be replaced.  This retrofit includes continuous exterior rigid insulation, rainscreen siding, a rubber roof with solar panels and heat pump.  In collaboration with the owners and Hammer & Hand.

What people are saying about live-work-play

Jane and I had an excellent experience working with Sheri who helped us conceptualize our wishes into a thoughtful, creative design and worked with contractors to make that design real.  Sheri is a listener.  In our first meeting she asked for us to name the qualities we foremost wanted in a backyard cottage.  All of them were met in the design and the end result.  She solved complex problems, she was direct and confident and friendly with contractors, took good notes and always followed through.  We love the results.
