Kenmore sits at the north end of Lake Washington, where established neighborhoods of craftsman bungalows, mid-century ranches, and newer construction create a rich and varied residential fabric. For homeowners who love where they live but have outgrown their space, a well-designed house extension is often the smartest path forward—preserving community ties and lot value while gaining the room your family needs. At Refine Design Architecture, we are the local architects for house extensions that Kenmore homeowners turn to when they want the job done right. Our team brings licensed architectural expertise, deep familiarity with King County and City of Kenmore permitting processes, and a genuine commitment to design quality that goes far beyond adding square footage. Every extension we design begins with listening. We take time to understand how you use your home today, what's not working, and what your life could look like with more space, better flow, or a stronger connection to the outdoors. From there, we develop addition concepts that respond to your site's specific conditions—sun angles, neighboring structures, existing roof lines, and setback requirements—crafting an extension that feels like it was always meant to be there. Whether you're envisioning a main floor family room, a primary suite above the garage, or a full rear addition that opens to your backyard, our team has the skills and the vision to bring it to life. We handle design, permitting, and construction documentation so you can focus on imagining life in your expanded Kenmore home.
