 Re: 4627 OAKRIDGE ST 25 May 2016

Houston Archeological Historic Committee

To Whom It May Concern:

The owner of the property listed above recently hired me to design his property located in the historic North Norhill

neighborhood in Houston Texas. It is our understanding that this property is subject to the Deed Restrictions as recorded in

the Real Property Records of Harris County. We understand that this property requires a Certificate of Appropriateness as

issued by HAHC in order to obtain a permit for construction from the City of Houston Building Department.

Property Description:

Built in 1930, the existing property appears to have started out as a typical two-bedroom/one bath

bungalow. It appears that an addition to the home was made in 1982, which added a small bedroom and full bath at the rear

of the residence. This also extended the kitchen towards the rear of the property. The layout of the front of the home is the

standard living/dining/kitchen on one half of the home and the bedroom/bath/bedroom on the other half. It is evident that the

rear is indeed an addition. The original teardrop siding has been covered with new siding tiles, perhaps asbestos panels. The

front consists of a full width concrete porch with brick columns and a gable roof which covers approximately half of the

width of the porch. Some of the typical bungalow details present in this home are gable brackets at the corners and ridge of

the overhanging gabled roof as well as tapered wood columns on brick base. The front porch has an intricate brick guardrail,

which appears to be original. All windows in the original part of the home are wood frames with replacement vinyl sashes.

Condition of Property:

This property appears to be generally in decent shape. The addition at the rear of the home appears to

have been done on a tight budget. The foundation at that portion is about 1” higher than the rest of the home. The condition

of the wood teardrop siding is unknown because it is covered with the newer siding. The windows all appear to be operable

with the newer vinyl sash replacements. The brickwork is in good shape as is the current exterior paint. The interior also

appears to be in decent shape. However the kitchen appears to have been renovated without any consideration of the period

of the home. The home appears to be structurally sound.

Scope of Work:

Having met with two of the planners at HAHC, Matt and Cory, we fully understand the commission’s areas of concern. As

you will see, this bungalow is of the narrower types, leading to small bedrooms. In our effort to reduce the expansion’s

impact to the street, we have opted for the single story addition towards the rear of the property. As such, the middle

bedroom and the dining room become quite small. We have created a couple of “bump-outs” to the home to make the

single-story plan functional. The bump-out at the rear of the home is placed beyond the historic footprint. We propose to

clad these bump-outs with board and batten siding to differentiate them from the historic residence. We have also opted to

remove the existing non-historic asbestos tiles in order to expose and rehabilitate the historic siding to bring this home back

to its historic appeal. Additionally, the Norhill Neighborhood Association, which also needs to approve of our proposal, has

reviewed our package and will support the design. A letter of approval from the NNA board will be included in this

submittal package.

Interior: Cosmetic remodel of current interior of residence with minor demolition work. This includes full

renovation of the kitchen and new paint/finishes of the remainder of the interior of the residence. Sand

and re-finish existing wood floors.

Exterior: Remove newer siding to expose original wood teardrop siding. Repair original wood siding as necessary.

Replace composite shingles as necessary. Existing original wood window frames to be repaired or

replaced if existing condition of windows is beyond repair. Existing vinyl sashes to be cleaned and

painted.

Addition: 437SF master suite addition to the rear of the residence with a detached one-car carport. Addition to

include master bedroom, master bathroom/closet with screened-in porch as well as a new utility

room/mudroom. The work also includes a few areas where we extrude the rooms out 18”-24” to break up

the north and south facades. These extruded masses will have gabled roofs, which will add much-needed

character in order to blend in with the character of the street. Materials and details of addition are to

match materials and details of existing bungalow. This work will involve demolition of portions of the

side walls which is not original as well as partial demolition of the current rear walls to connect to the

new addition. The roof line will be a continuation of the current roof with gable details that mimic the

existing original gable details.

Landscape: Existing driveway to remain. Existing landscape will be cleaned up and manicured.

Following is our complete submittal for your review. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any questions

regarding the submittal.

Respectfully,

Bernardo Rios
