Ocean Beach Cottage Reconstruction

 

Tucked behind one of the oldest and grandest homes along San Francisco’s Great Highway, this historic outbuilding had fallen into decades of disrepair. What once served as a humble auxiliary structure has been reimagined as a warm and inviting single-family cottage.

The new dwelling was carefully reconstructed within the original footprint, blending early 20th-century character with modern functionality. Designed by Samaha + Hart in close collaboration with the homeowners, Sage Construction brought this project to life with our signature craftsmanship and unparalleled attention to detail.

Project Highlights

  • Complete rebuild within existing footprint

  • Custom cabinetry throughout

  • Classic top-nailed hardwood floors

  • Custom mahogany windows and doors

  • Restored antique Wedgewood stove

  • All copper gutters, downspouts, and roof jacks

  • Upgraded electrical panel

  • Antique dresser repurposed as a bathroom vanity

  • Reclaimed custom-milled redwood decking

  • Radiant floor heating throughout

  • Intricate tile work in kitchen and bath

  • Stone-wrapped floating shelves

  • Period-inspired interior moldings and trim

A thoughtful balance of history, design, and craftsmanship, this Ocean Beach cottage now captures the charm of vintage coastal architecture while offering the comfort and efficiency of a modern home.
