A San Francisco Edwardian

Posted on Fri, 29 Nov 2024 by KiM

There is a elegance and old world sophistication to this San Francisco Edwardian home designed (again) by Alecia Stevens. She frankly had me at Edwardian. A timeless stunner. Photos: Ken Gutmaker.

Redfern Terrace House by Brace Design is a thoughtful renovation and extension of a classic inner Sydney townhouse, blending functionality with contemporary style while honouring its historic charm. A small front bedroom was reconfigured into a walk-in robe, seamlessly integrating with the main bedroom and bathroom to form a spacious, private suite. Timber panels along the hallway artfully conceal doors and stairs, creating a streamlined entryway. Upstairs, the roof space was transformed into a cozy guest bedroom with an ensuite. At the rear, an open-plan kitchen and dining area bathed in natural light connects beautifully to the garden, showcasing practical and elegant design solutions.

The project involved architects AB Design Studio collaborating with Tamara Honey, founder of House of Honey, to transform a modest 1950s wood cabin nestled in a rock quarry between the Santa Barbara foothills and the Santa Ynez mountains. Surrounded by massive boulders, the single-story home now features an expanded wrap-around wood deck. A central hallway connects the updated kitchen and living areas to a spacious new master suite. Named Honey House, the design captures the area’s artistic and Zen heritage—once home to bohemian poets, writers, and artists—by preserving original features and incorporating reclaimed stone found on the property.
