Taft House, Bird Rock

DBRDS designed several alterations and an addition to a post & beam-style ranch home in Bird Rock that was originally designed in 1968 by prominent San Diego Architect Richard ‘Dick’ Lareau. A new master suite addition overlooking the Pacific Ocean was constructed off the back of the house and a new kitchen and dining space was added. The redesigned house was awarded the historical Mills Act designation in 2018.
