Modern Custom Home

A 5,500-square-foot custom residence in Los Altos, this home features modern amenities rooted in traditional craftsmanship. The design centers on clean architectural geometry, radiant heated floors throughout, and a 1,500-square-foot subterranean level designed for family entertainment. Built under veteran master builder oversight, Gary Keeth delivered an inviting, light-filled environment engineered for flexible daily living.

Clean Lines and Flexible Spaces

Designing a modern custom home across 5,500 square feet requires balancing sharp architectural lines with comfortable, functional living areas. Located in the Country Club area of Los Altos, the vision for this home centered on creating an open, inviting atmosphere defined by expansive glass openings, radiant heated flooring, and zero-tolerance framing returns.

A defining feature of the build is the 1,500-square-foot subterranean guest and entertainment suite. Engineered as a dedicated TV and music lounge destination for the family, this lower level incorporates specialized acoustic insulation, custom climate controls, and structural retaining systems. Seamless material transitions reflect the career-long master builder standards applied to every KBC residence.

Gary’s Perspective

"Guided by a “less is more” philosophy, this project demonstrates how clean, thoughtful design can result in a home that is both highly functional and genuinely inviting. The addition of a 1,500-square-foot basement allowed us to integrate dedicated music and entertainment suites that elevate the homeowners' daily experience and hosting capabilities. Every detail was executed to support a flexible, comfortable lifestyle while upholding a disciplined, modern architectural aesthetic."
