1277694100 39 New On The Market, Open Houses In Baristaville, Sunday, June 6, 2010

House of the week in Montclair – plus Baristaville Sunday Sampler after the jump.

113 Alexander Avenue, MontclairList Price: $770,000Taxes: $17,068Lot Size: 0.36 Acres4 BR/3.5 BAOpen Sunday, 2-4pm.Listing Agent: Roberta Baldwin, Keller Williams Towne Square Realty, 973-420-9043 (cell) If you ask me, this Montclair home has everything going for it – it’s pretty new construction, built in 1994, of modern, not mega proportions. Neo-Victorian in design with gables, wrap around porch, bough window, and high ceilings, its layout is modern and practical to suit today’s lifestyles. the heart of the living space is a combined kitchen and great room which opens onto a small deck that leads you to the spectacular, and I do mean spectacular English garden. before I go there, back to the kitchen. Sally Ross Designs conceived the multi-functional space about 5 years ago, tranforming three boxy rooms without flow. the result is a lovely entertaining and cook’s kitchen surrounded by windows anchored with an l-o-n-g green Brazilian slate island. (Apparently Sally Ross leads the pack for “it” kitchens.) On the other half of the space, subtly separated by half-walls, is the dining area, and a comfy famiy room featuring built ins, a window seat, and stone fireplace. (Off the kitchen, a practical yet elegant mudroom.) where else would you want to be in this home — except lolligagging in the amazing garden.

Richly planted with flowering annuals, stone paths meander to a meditative sitting area, home to Koi fish in the bubbling cascading rock pond. Periwinkle adirondack chairs and matching trellises look stunning on the curvy lawn; behind sculpted beds is a playground set and a potting shed. All this wonderfullly framed by huge evergreens creating an oasis of privacy. Some of you may know this garden, which three years ago was featured on the Van Vleck “Roses to Rock Gardens” annual tour.

What else: the home has a modern Soho feel; wood floors are gleaming, there’s a view of greenery from every window, rooms have high, oversized windows, and hanging baskets of fuschia on the porch is just another wonderful detail. the owner of the house was happy to show me the finished basement – his “manctuary.” A nice place to get away from it all, complete with office, TV room, exercise room, bedroom. A married man’s bachelor pad, I suppose. the only downside – no garage, and limited parking. For GSMLS info and photos, click here.

1277164952 95 From outdated to chic

We all have small spaces somewhere in our house or apartment. It may be the bathroom, foyer, backyard — maybe the galley kitchen.

If that’s the case, a good interior designer can find ways to maximize the square footage, giving the illusion of more room, while ramping up the style factor.

Badr Gebara, interior designer and owner of blu dot interiors, turned Issam Sahak’s 700-square-foot Gatineau apartment from an outdated bachelor pad into a sophisticated, adult space overlooking the Ottawa River.

Gebara gutted the Laurier Street condo, erasing its tattered disco-image, tossing the white particle board cabinets, taking down walls and lifting the dated laminate flooring.

The condo, built 44 years ago, had been rented to a bachelor whose idea of furniture was a pool table placed in the centre of the living room.

Sahak wanted a fresh start and modern, bright spaces. Gebara delivered.

“I think it is perfect,” says Sahak, 36, adding the view from his condo on Canada Day is spectacular. “Everyone really likes it. They are surprised by the design, especially in such a small (space).”

Gebara had her work cut out for her.

Last summer the contractors tore out everything, including the yellowed light switch and rusted grate covers. Gebara co-ordinated the two-month $30,000 project, which worked well for Sahak, who is an architect with NAV Canada and too busy to do the job himself.

Gebara jokes the experience was like the TLC show, While You Were Out, because she sourced all the materials and was the liaison between kitchen designers, contractors and her client.

“I’d go out and take pictures of all kinds of things, and e-mail them to him with the prices,” she says.

She maximized space by removing part of the wall that separated the kitchen and living area, creating a breakfast bar with pendant lights. “There was no window in the kitchen and this was a creative way of adding more light.”

Sahak likes the change because he can now sit down at his kitchen bar with his laptop, and watch the television in the living room.

The grungy white cupboards have been replaced with espresso-stained cabinets, extra side cabinets for storage, undermount lighting, chic hardware, new appliances, granite countertops, and a tumbled-stone backsplash. The aging laminate and linoleum has been replaced with engineered-hardwood flooring.

“It is very important when you are working with small spaces to keep the floor uniform — not to have different flooring because it is going to chop it up,” she says.

Other tricks? Because older one-bedroom apartments typically sport bigger bedrooms, Gebara borrowed some of the space to build a walk-in closet.

After replacing the bathroom cabinets, toilet, flooring, shower, light fixtures, and mirror, she removed the bathroom door and installed a pocket door, which disappears neatly into the wall.

“It maxes space because the door is not opening into the bathroom or the hallway,” says Gebara. “There wasn’t a structured wall, so we were able to (install) a door that hides within a wall.”

1277053293 48 Midtown Bazaar opens Saturday

A marketplace of colorful stalls will take over one of Sacramento’s busiest corners Saturday.

Like an oasis in a concrete desert, a new public market called the Midtown Bazaar will spring up on a parking lot at 16th and J streets — across from the Memorial Auditorium and P.F. Chang’s China Bistro — and flow through an alley into a cavernous old building for a few hours each week.

At least 75 local vendors offering art and other goods have already signed up for the grand opening, to be held from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. With an indoor location measuring 25,600 feet, the market will be held year-round. The old garage at 1630 I St. sports old timber trusses, a mezzanine and roll-up doors in back that will be open to allow the crowd to move between the two market spaces.

Organizer Sabrina Berhane, who has a background in marketing and special event planning, is partnering with entrepreneur Aaron Zeff to create the event. Zeff is president of Priority Parking Inc., and he owns the parking lot and garage where the bazaar will be located.

Hosting a public market there will offer artisans a place to sell their wares in the heart of the central city, in a way that doesn’t require any capital, Zeff said.

“The creative class — to me, that’s what will make Sacramento become a great city,” Zeff said. “We’ve got to energize and nurture these people.”

All proceeds from $1 admission fees will be donated to WEAVE, a local nonprofit fighting domestic violence. The cost of vendor space will be low to keep the market affordable. For the first month, all 10 x 10 spaces will cost $10 every Saturday. Spaces will be $15 to $25 starting July 17, Berhane said.

The event will grow to fit the community. Its name reflects the fun and energy an evolving public market can create in Sacramento, like bazaars selling gold, silk and spices in the old world, she said.

“When I think of a bazaar, I think of an outdoor market somewhere overseas — something exotic and fresh,” she said.

Booths will carry art ranging from paintings, sculptures and photos to jewelry and hand-painted jewelry boxes, as well as handmade children’s furniture, clothing, pet accessories and even Tempur-Pedic pillows. Half a dozen people will use their spaces for mini-garage sales.

She has a long-term vision that includes a farmers’ market, flower stalls and organic, gourmet food sellers offering such things as artisan cheeses and olive oil.

Area farmers who regularly sell at other local farmer’s markets have said they would like to be involved. But they have been hesitant to try something new. United Coffeehouse will sell hand-pressed organic coffee, while others will sell jerky and carnitas on Saturday. Flowers, honey and olive oil will be for sale the second weekend, Berhane said.

On Saturday, music will flow from a Sacramento cover band called the Connie Bryan Power Trio, which will play 1960s to ’80s rock, and from radio station KBZC 106.5 FM. Berhane is still searching for a few good restaurants and musicians who would like to participate.

The alley will not be closed for the event. But if the Midtown Bazaar expands down the road, the Sacramento City Council’s approval for such a closure may be sought, said Zeff, who has put on hold plans to open a restaurant row on that alley.

Sacramento has seen a growing interest in farmer’s markets, the Second Saturday Art Walk and other organized events for local artists. A Thursday night farmer’s market became popular on K Street Mall in the 1990s, until growing violence led it to be shut down.

The new public market is being established in Midtown within view of the Memorial Auditorium because the spot has a “cool, historic vibe” and can be reached easily by neighbors on foot or on bike, said Zeff, outgoing president of the Midtown Business Association.

“It’s where the creative class lives, works and plays,” Zeff said. “I’d like to have something here that the creative class wants, and I think we’re going to deliver that.”
