Attachment 3 - Project DetailsEntry oriented to the street front
Per section 3.6.1 of the Los Gatos Residential Design Guidelines document, we would like to
orient the entry to the street front. We believe that the original entry was oriented towards the
street front. The orientation of this image is facing the home, with the street at the back. This
was likely a porch at some point, and could be the original entry.
3.6.1
Entries
Provide a clear expression of entry
Orient the entry to the street front. It should be visible from
the street.
ATTACHMENT 3
Door
A traditional wooden door that’s typical of the ones in the neighbourhood. We would like one
sidelight because that seems to fit with the proportions of the home. We’ll have glass in the door
to bring light into the house. A close example is below.
Columns and railing
Square 10-12” columns with subtle details and the top and bottom are common on Johnson
Ave. Below is a close example of the columns that we will build. The railings will be similar to
this home on Johnson Ave.
Porch and stairs
The floor of the porch and the stairs will be wood that’s suitable for outdoor use. Our porch and
stairs will look similar to this house on Johnson Ave. The wainscoting will be the original siding.
