Additions That Appear Original

Most home additions look like additions—mismatched materials, awkward transitions, and proportions that feel tacked on.

For wine-country estates valued in the millions, this approach compromises architectural integrity and long-term property value.

We specialize in expansions that integrate so seamlessly they appear to have been part of the original architectural vision—careful material matching, proportion studies, and transitions that feel natural.

Material matching and transition details

Seamless Integration

Designed to Feel Inevitable

The difference between a good addition and a great one is in the details—material transitions, roofline continuity, and proportional relationships.

  • Material Matching
    Sourcing or replicating existing siding, roofing, trim, and finishes
  • Roofline Continuity
    Matching pitches, overhangs, and eave details for architectural coherence
  • Proportional Balance
    Addition scale and massing that respects the original structure
  • Seamless Transitions
    Interior and exterior connections that feel natural, not forced

Home Addition FAQs

How do you match materials on older wine-country homes?

We source specialty materials and work with craftspeople who can replicate period-specific siding, trim, and roofing to ensure seamless integration with established architecture.

Will a home addition affect my property value?

When executed properly with architectural integrity, additions enhance property value by adding functional square footage while preserving the home character. Poorly executed additions can diminish value.

How long does a master suite addition take?

Most master suite additions take 6–10 months including design, permitting (2–4 months), and construction, depending on complexity and site conditions.

Can you expand a home on a hillside property?

Yes. We specialize in hillside expansions in wine country, coordinating structural engineering, foundation work, and grading to work with natural terrain.
