Serenity House: A Redwood City Home Transformed
Creating a home that’s as functional as it is beautiful requires thoughtful design, quality materials, and attention to detail. In this video, interior designer Amy Fregosi walks us through the Serenity House, a nearly complete remodel that combines elegance, warmth, and modern touches. Watch the video above for a full tour of this Redwood City gem, or read on for highlights from the tour and a deeper dive into some of the unique design choices.
Welcoming Entryway with Custom Features
As we begin the tour, Amy introduces us to the custom walnut front doors with matte black hardware and privacy glass. These doors set the tone for the entire home, giving it a sophisticated and inviting entrance. The homeowners loved the movement in the glass, which adds both privacy and a touch of artistry to the entryway.
Thoughtful Staircase and Soft Edges Throughout
Moving inside, one of the first standout features is the staircase with LED lighting. The lights provide a warm glow, enhancing safety and ambiance, especially for late-night returns. Soft edges are a recurring theme in this home, from the custom-made railing system to the wood cap that matches the white oak flooring. These gentle curves create a harmonious flow and make the space feel open and welcoming.
Open Family Room with Bay Views
The family room is one of the most breathtaking areas in the Serenity House. Upon entering, visitors are greeted by sweeping views of the Bay and a linear fireplace flanked by custom cabinetry. The cabinets, crafted with wide oak shelves and LED lighting, add storage and display space while matching the warm tones of the flooring. Details like the gemstone hardware and soft black paint create an elegant contrast, while the subtle lighting provides a cozy atmosphere in the evenings.
A Dining Room Reimagined
One of the most transformative elements of this remodel was opening up the dining room. Previously a closed-off area, this space is now bright and airy, making it a favorite spot for the homeowners. Soon, handcrafted metal partitions will add vibrancy while maintaining the open feel. With brass and glass elements continuing from the family room, the dining area ties in beautifully with the overall theme.
Functionality and Beauty in the Kitchen
The kitchen is both a functional workspace and a showstopper. Amy’s design combines hidden storage solutions with luxurious materials, like the waterfall-edge marble countertop that harmonizes with the warm tones of the flooring. Additional storage is cleverly incorporated throughout, with details like pull-out shelves, hidden paper towel storage, and built-in knife blocks and spice racks. It’s a kitchen that meets the practical needs of a busy household while being visually stunning.
Custom Storage Wall and Bar
In place of the old closet pantry, the design features a custom storage wall and bar area. This element adds ample storage while providing a sophisticated space for entertaining. The wall includes custom pull-out shelving, a wine fridge, an ice maker, and a sink with reverse osmosis water filtration. Beautiful brass shelving and earthquake-safe design elements add both style and practicality to this area.
Spa-Like Bathroom with Personalized Touches
Downstairs, the bathroom showcases a mix of high-sheen materials and walnut cabinetry, along with a unique color inspired by the homeowner’s love for the 49ers. This personalized touch blends seamlessly with the bathroom’s refined design, incorporating elements that reflect both the client’s personality and the overall aesthetic of the Serenity House.
