SIR FRANCIS DRAKE | ROSS
Capitalizing on possibilities missed by others
Seeing great opportunity that others had overlooked, Summit collaborated with Kenneth Holder of Holder Design to develop this dilapidated property located in a floodplain on a busy stretch of Sir Francis Drake Blvd.
Working with the Ross building department, we obtained authorization to lift the house out of the floodplain and to greatly exceed the floor-to-area ratio requirements. The completely rebuilt home was finished in 2013, its size doubled to 3,800 square feet and its rooms expanded to 5 bedrooms and 3½ baths. It sold the first weekend, setting a new price-per-square-foot record for the area.
