The place

A new-build with a modern aesthetic.

The history

Builders bought this house four years ago, then gutted it. They’ve just finished a complete renovation. The interior has some trendy touches, like floating staircases and vast, open living spaces. The exterior departs from the grey monotone common among properties of this type: blue stucco and dark wood liven things up a bit.

Here’s the entrance:
