STUNNINGLY SOPHISTICATED
CONTEMPORARY CLASSIC
1945 Knollwood Lane, Los Altos
The architect’s goal was to create a stunning open floor plan that would be intimate, as well as handle a crowd.
This location is hidden at the end of a cul-de-sac in a sought-after location in Los Altos. Its mature lush landscaping provides privacy and a retreat-like setting. Upon entering the front gate, you are invited into a very large and private front yard with covered entry.
Inside, you are given a glimpse of an indoor-outdoor setting, with many skylights throughout adding to the drama, comfort, and natural light.
The kitchen is the heart of the home with high-end appliances hidden by cabinetry. No detail was missed in making this area a cook’s delight and efficient for everyday living. A hidden butler’s pantry provides additional space for everyday appliances and storage. Texture through materials chosen was the main objective to bring an organic and timeless feeling.
Abundant storage is hidden throughout the home making living and cleanup easy. The living area opens onto a large covered deck allowing year-round entertainment and viewing of the Zen garden and gazebo. This home was designed to be low maintenance on the exterior and warm and magical on the interior.
