Bellevue Remodel

  • Full remodel in Bellevue, WA, completed 2020
  • Contractor:  YS Built
  • Structural Engineer:  Harriott Valentine Engineers, Inc.
  • Photography:  Resound Architecture + Design

This 1950s split-level home was fully renovated to improve functionality of the home, thermal performance, and natural light.

  • Mini-splits and an ERV system, along with heat-pump were added to improve energy efficiency.
  • Skylights were strategically added to bring daylight into dark spaces.
  • Both bathrooms were updated, one of which now accessible access to the shower for aging parents when they visit.
  • The entry way was opened up to provide better flow between the levels, but a wood screen element still provides some privacy from the street.
  • There is even a hidden door to a secret kids-only area. Shhh!
