The Cupertino, California transformation adds 677 square feet along the rear and side of the home while reorganizing key interior spaces for better daily use. A new primary suite introduces a walk-in closet and full bathroom, the living room gains additional gathering space, and the kitchen is rebuilt around new cabinetry, solid-surface counters and an island with integrated sink and dishwasher. Exterior work adds a 69-square-foot covered porch and a coordinated stucco and simulated-stone finish strategy.
