Single-Family Homes The three, three-story detached single-family homes would range in size from approximately 1 ,787 to 1 ,918 square feet in area, and would each have two bedrooms, a living room and kitchen space, and a two-car garage. The first-floor of each single-family home has been designed to include an option of a third bedroom or an office space (ranging in size from 180 to 194 square feet, noted as MU on the floor plans in Exhibit B). A small front porch or a deck/balcony would be provided for each unit. Additional private open space is provided for Residence 1 on the south side of the residence. However, given the proximity of the proposed parking lot and location of other on-site structures/improvements, Residences 2 and 3 would not have usable ground-level private open space. Circulation and Parking Access to the parking lot would be from a decorative concrete paver drive aisle, north of the mixed-use building, on Augustine Street. The applicant is proposing to have the apartment tenants share the six parking spaces with the office/retail tenant(s). Access to the detached homes would be from a decorative concrete paver drive aisle on the north side of Old Bernal Avenue that would also provide access to the individual garages in each single-family home. No guest parking would be provided for the residential units. Architecture The applicant is proposing traditional architecture with modern elements. This "modern farmhouse" style is characterized by wood and metal siding, front porches, prominent porch supports, knee braces, and a gable roof. The roof designs include both side and front gables, which create more variety in the design and break up the massing. The buildings would have a combination of grey-colored standing seam metal roofs and weathered wood-colored (dark brown with green undertones) composition roofs. Architectural elements would feature a combination of white wood board-and-batten siding and stucco, grey metal siding, and black accents (windows, doors, garages, and exterior lighting fixtures). The massing of the buildings is broken up by the use of balconies and projected or recessed building walls, and dormer windows which provide variation in the wall planes. Large storefront doors and windows are used on street-facing elevations (on Augustine Street and Old Bernal Avenue) of the mixed-use building. Transom windows are also incorporated over the glass doors on the south and north elevation to further distinguish the office/retail space. Please refer to Figures 5 and 6 and Exhibit B.
