Perched on an enviable seaside bluff with stunning views of the Monterrey Bay, Sea House is a creative reimagining of a craftsman-style home. The seaside residence enjoys incredible uninterrupted ocean views along a busy palisade for beach-going visitors. By flipping the typical arrangement of public and private spaces, the clients can enjoy expansive views with a high degree of privacy. Living, dining, and kitchen spaces were relocated to the upper floor. Demising walls were completely removed, the roof was restructured, and an outdoor deck and operable glass walls were integrated into the design to capitalize on views of the Bay and provide true indoor-outdoor living. Downstairs generous private bedrooms and bathrooms were provided. All of the bedrooms enjoy shielded garden views of the oceanfront, while the upper level has the impact of the uninterrupted seascape. Throughout craftsman details were integrated to preserve the character of the home.
