328 Cumberland, Dolores Heights

FORMA Construction was the developer and contractor for this San Francisco home renovation and remodel. FORMA Construction meticulously rebuilt 328 Cumberland over five years, perched on the most sought-after block in Dolores Heights. The design and construction team overcame impressive obstacles to expand from 1,500 to 4,300 square feet, transforming the zero-lot line home and necessitating the strategic underpinning of neighboring structures to create an additional subterranean level beneath the garage. This impressive home renovation and remodel included infrastructural upgrades, which involved meticulously excavating 650 cubic yards of soil, equivalent to approximately 80 substantial transport trucks. It also required drilling 21 piles at depths of 40 to 50 feet and 26 piers descending 25 feet; the endeavor demanded 300 yards of concrete (equal to 33 concrete trucks).

The team thoughtfully integrated every facet of this family home, incorporating cutting-edge AV solutions and sophisticated lighting controls, transforming the outdated house into a luxury residence. They expanded outdoor spaces on each level, adding the home’s crown jewel—an enviable rooftop terrace with glass railings that preserve the uninterrupted, captivating views of San Francisco.
