COMPLIANCE WITH GUIDELINES
Existing eaves at the house are approximately 6” from the face of the
siding on the east and west facades. At the north and south facades the
existing roof is effectively flush with the siding except for approximatley
1-2” of trim as shown in the photos above. This is not an unusual
treatment for the Northwest and houses of this era. The steep pitch of the
existing roof combined with site topography means that extending the
eaves on the street facade would block sunlight and views from the
windows, and effectively reduce the window area visible to the street.
Current plan for the non-street facing addition are to match the existing
eave style and maintain a consistent character across the home.
z
The street frontage is the existing east facade, and currently
there are no plans to alter the east facade. The existing
window/door percentage falls below the 25% minimum
established by the design regulations; however, windows/
doors do comprise much of the available wall area given the
configuration of the bedrooms, bathroom and garage lining
the east side of the house. The front door is a focal point,
and is in scale with the rest of the facade.
