A new low-profile French Provencal custom cottage home designed by Myles Nelson McKenzie Design for the beach lifestyle of Southern California.
This new custom home was designed for our clients, which have a very narrow and small lot. It’s located in the old town section of Huntington Beach, California.

A Concept Design For A Casual French Provencal Home At The Beach
Originally there was an existing 1400 square foot ranch-style residence on the property. The existing residence was demolished and completely removed. With a fresh lot to build upon, a new custom home cottage home style was designed for a combined total of 3587 square feet of livable space.
A few design features…
For the client’s casual lifestyle, we develop a new home design to meet their needs. The new residence has 4 bedrooms and 3 baths. Additionally, it has an open kitchen, dining, and great room floor plan in an exposed beam vaulted space. Also, we incorporated an intimate exterior dining and kitchen area for the exterior courtyard. The residence also has a trellis-covered upper floor deck, off of the upper second office. To enlarge the sense of space, we designed the new residence with 9 and 10-foot room heights. Also for this beach community property, it has a smooth villa-style stucco with a stone veneer. This makes for an easy low maintenance residence.
