Revitalized Los Altos Colonial Home: A Blend of Modernity and Heritage

Immerse yourself in the transformation of a 1920 Los Altos colonial home, artfully restored by May Construction, Inc. to meet contemporary desires while preserving historical charm.

Nestled in the heart of Los Altos, California, this exquisite colonial home originally constructed in 1920, has undergone a remarkable transformation. The homeowners aspiring to blend their modern lifestyle with the historical essence of their heritage property, embarked on a journey of restoration and innovation.

As you step into this revitalized abode, you're welcomed by a radiant sunroom, where natural light pours in, illuminating the grand entrance. The centerpiece, a new white oak staircase adorned with black iron, captures your attention immediately. The juxtaposition of old and new continues throughout the home, with a dining room lit by contemporary blown glass lights, opposite a cozy living room. Here, a marbled floor-to-ceiling fireplace adds a touch of opulence.

The heart of the home, the kitchen, is a marvel of modern design. Crisp white shaker cabinets, coupled with an island crowned in Cambria Britannica Quartz, exude elegance. Equipped with state-of-the-art stainless-steel appliances and dual sinks, this kitchen is a haven for culinary exploration.

Adjacent to the kitchen lies a freshly remodeled laundry room, boasting a rinse sink and quartz countertop, perfect for multitasking. The basement, once underused, now serves as a versatile space, ideal as a game room, storage area, or teenage retreat.

The upper level houses a sophisticated master suite, expanded by removing an old fireplace. Its adjoining master bath is a sanctuary, featuring a walk-in shower wrapped in solid surface, heated floors, a wall-to-wall vanity, and an intricate backsplash, all contributing to the room's modern character.

May Construction, Inc., responsible for the budget analysis and project development, has skillfully brought the clients' dream to fruition, seamlessly merging modernity with the home's historical roots.
