Situated on a .24 acre plot, this duplex unit is located on a former SB9 lot split. With an R-1 zoning, the utilization of CA SB9 enabled the construction of a two-unit dwelling, which would not have been feasible otherwise. Given the constraints of a narrow yet elongated parcel, we encountered various challenges, particularly in terms of accommodating both units.The exterior includes a traditional open gable design, known for its classic triangular shape, more elaborate designs incorporate additional elements and details to improve both the roof’s visual appeal and practicality. A front gable roof is situated above the entrance of the house. This particular design is important as it creates a striking focal point above the main entrance of the residence.
