The Next Generation Berkeley, CA Back to Projects OverviewGalleryProject DetailsRelated Projects Overview Levitch returns to remodel this 60’s family home, by upgrading its Kitchen, stairs with a special feature, and decks. Gallery ProcessCompleted Project Project Details Location: Berkeley, CA Our client and her family of five needed to make upgrades to her childhood home. Our founder, Ed Levitch had previously remodeled this family’s home in the 1960s. The home was stabilized and lifted to eliminate a 2″ drop near the original Kitchen. Levitch replaces the lower floor foundation and slab on grade, allowing for a new Family Room as well as a Kitchen and Bathroom for the legalized Second Unit. We replace the interior staircase and open it up to the Living Room with new light tubes to help distribute natural light. We replace the deck and added a new spiral stair in a new location leading to the backyard. The Kitchen is reconfigured and remodeled by adding a new Dutch door as a ‘back Kitchen door’ to the front entry deck. This detail was a particular favorite for the client due to her Dutch heritage.
