Town Policy
That the work proposed is compatible with the neighborhood.
Dear Hi stori c Review Committee members,
We are requesting approval for the restoration and remodel of our home at 334 Los
Gatos Blvd.
When researching the history of our home and how to most accurately restore it, we
considered the following: 1) The history of Bungalow designs marketed in this area in
the 1920's (reference "The Bungalow" book); 2) The style and detai l of other homes built
in the Spanish District of Los Gatos, by Charles P. Baird; and 3) The architectural
expertise of David Britt, our designer.
Our proposed addition is harmonious with the existing architectural style (i.e. wall
heights, roof form, finishes) of our home. It has been designed in a way that does not
take attention away from the original building, with articulations setting the addition back
further on the property. This balances the home with other additions that have been
design/built over the years (Ha rding St side as an exa mple).
C urrently, the Colonial style front porch is anomalous to the identified Spanish bungalow
architectural style of the house, the house next door (340 LG Blvd), and other Baird
properties in the neighborhood. We believe that a previous owner modified the porch
and front windows, and in doing so, altered the home to have a more Colonial fayade. It
is our desire and intention to restore the porch to a more historically accurate Spanish
Bungalow design.
We purchased our home because of the charm that comes with historic homes.
It is very important for us to preserve the period cha racter of both the design era and
the neighborhood.
We thank you in advance for your considerations,
Hillari & Andy Zighelboim

7. DESCRI~ON {Cont.)
planarwallsand various other hallmarks of this style. Many have ceramic (or
~itation ceramic) pantile roofs of the standard terra cotta orange color. The
roofs are flat or of low pitch. Some have curvalinear parapets, low relief medal-
lions, and/or canales (decorative water spouts). There are a number of segmental
arches and some columns. Considered in three dimensions, most of the houses
appear as one main block with a single front projection (entry or one room) having
a separate low pitch roof. Facades are not symmetrical, but entries are near the
ceneer. Chimneys, usually stuccoed, are located on side elevations . Most original
Windows appear to have been wood casement sash, often subdivided.
By and large the houses are intact as to location, materials, workmanship, feeling
and association, but a number of front windows have been altered to picture
windows. On the 15 parcels, 12 houses (80%) contribute to thedistrict. ~o of
the three non-contributors are too thoroughly altered to contribute, and one lot
has 1950s building(s). All parcels are listed on page 2, and each contribueing
house is shown on subsequent pages with photo and minimum historic information.
