RE: Response to Comments on Second Story Addition Proposal – 245 LosGatos Blvd.
Dear Members of the Historic Preservation Committee,
Thank you for your thoughtful review of our proposed second-story addition and foryour comments regarding ways to improve its integration with the existingresidence.
We appreciate your suggestion to move the second-story addition forward tocreate a more cohesive relationship with the original structure. We have revisitedour design with this in mind and are exploring adjustments that will bring theaddition forward in a manner that maintains the integrity of the existing façade
while enhancing the architectural unity of the home.
Additionally, we recognize the importance of maintaining and reinforcing theSpanish/Mission Revival character of the property. In response to yourrecommendation, we are incorporating additional stylistic embellishments and
details consistent with this architectural language. These include enhanced
roofline articulation,tile vents, colonial style windows, decorative ironwork such aslanterns, and appropriate stucco textures and finishes.
We are committed to ensuring that the final design aligns with both the historic
context of the neighborhood and the guiding principles of the Committee. We look
forward to presenting the revised plans for your review and welcome any furtherinput you may have.
Thank you again for your guidance and dedication to preserving the character of
our community.
