2027 Velez Drive Second-Floor Addition

Description

A homeowner sought to add a 552-square-foot second floor and 82-square-foot first-floor addition to a 2,536-square-foot one-story home, for a new total of 3,170 square feet including the garage. The plan also converts 52 square feet of garage to pantry storage and shrinks the front porch.

Impact summary

The addition rises nearly 5 feet above the 16-foot height limit and puts a new story within about 20 feet of the downslope neighbor. Staff found no significant view impairment from the protected harbor view and deemed it compatible with the neighborhood.
