Comprehensive residential design and construction documents for a custom estate in Truckee CA

WINCHESTER HOUSE

This new mountain modern residential construction project was designed by MASTRIDICASA for one of our own - a local couple that are an integral part of the design / build industry here in Truckee-Tahoe.

This is another successful design-collaboration with the clients - she is a talented interior designer, and he is an accomplished general building contractor.

This design project posed a few challenges - the lot falls away from the road immediately, the design guidelines constrained the excavation, and a strict budget dictated all of the design options.

Working closely with the clients through a very detail-oriented design development process made this project a success, defined as: she got what she wanted, and he knew he could build it within their budget—a win-win.

The project was put "on-hold" in early 2025. As of Spring 2026, the project is "back on", and construction should begin shortly. Stay tuned for updates; we will post construction progress photos as they become available.

SITE PLANNING

The topography information does not lie...

Many iterations of the site plan were investigated to achieve the client's desired goals, with budget as the main concern. As the owner/builder, he knew exactly what they could accomplish for their given budget.

Seen here is the final layout that satisfied the HOA design review committee's requirements for cut slopes and excavation limits.
