Document Description
Removal of the existing detached garage, rear storage shed, and western house addition, as well as relocation and lifting of the existing house onto new foundation approximately two feet to the west and three feet to the south to accommodate existing proximity to property lines. The project also includes front door and porch replacement, remodeling the interior main level as well as the attic to add living space on the upper level and a corresponding stair. The attic remodel would include new roof skylights as well as a rear upper-level deck, windows and access French doors. All existing windows to remain are proposed to be replaced of the same dimension openings with aluminum-clad wood 4-over-4 windows, with simulated putty glaze ogee grills to match the existing windows. The project also includes the addition of a side recessed two-car garage that would include improvements in the right-of-way to expand the curb cut and build a proper driveway approach. The house will also be repainted a deep blue, with white trim.
