INSIDE SCV HOMES
When staying home is the new summer trend, it's time to turn your backyard into your own private staycation resort - just as the homeowners did at this palatial River Village hillstop estate. "We wanted an outdoor space we could come home to and instantly feel like we were on vacation," says Sabrin. "We're out here every single day, and it gives us a place to escape to without ever having to leave home."
Big dreams come in small packages, and there's nothing dreamier than this bright and cheery tiny home custom-built by a local family.
Few things are more healing than a deep, salty breath of ocean air first thing in the morning - and just 45 minutes up the beautiful Highway126 - Channel Islands Harbor is the coastal getaway close enough to remind SCV locals that life's always a beach.
Santa Clarita is the perfect place for a staycation. Here's a few of our favorite spaces for some safer-at-home inspiration.
Lovers of all things wine and Napa Valley, Preston and Nicole Geeting brought the California Wine Country aesthetic home to their own backyard when they designed this heavenly Yountville-style retreat nestled into the sprawling Southern Oaks hillside. For the Geetings, outdoor living has never been more pleasing to the palette.
This Valencia traditional French-country home is anything but standard for Santa Clarita - and the beauty's in the details. Located in Valencia, overlooking golf-course greens - and at over 7,000 square feet of living space - this five-bedroom estate also boasts a theater room, his-and-hers upstairs offices, a gym, a billiard room, a game room, three staircases, two exterior loggias and multiple courtyards.

When Lisa and Robert Younkin first moved into their West Hills community home, a goal was set. "We wanted a house that exuded warmth - but still had clean lines and a very neutral palette."
In physics, black may be the absence of physical light, but in design it can be an anchor that pulls everything together.

In Santa Clarita, our near-constant great weather means that we can expand our living spaces into our yards.
The bonus square footage is only of value, though, if we make our exterior spaces feel as good as our interior -
and blend the two areas seamlessly so that the entire home flows.

INSPIRED BY DESIGN
If you've been wondering how to update your farmhouse decor for a more modern feel, look no further than the sophisticated simplicity of this classic kitchen.

In physics, black may be the absence of physical light, but in design it can be an anchor that pulls everything together.
Garage floors, pet runs, backyard patio spaces, laundry rooms... they could all use flooring that's easier to clean, better looking, more sanitary and safer to use. And - in 2019 - the best choice for that is clear: the custom patented polyurea floors from ALLBRiGHT.

It's been another 16-hour workday for Joel Moss, co-owner of Paul Davis Restoration of Santa Clarita. His face seems permanently creased by the protective gear he wears on the jobsite; his voice is raspy from yelling directions over the sound of air scrubbers and taking call after call from local business owners and families who need his expertise. He's consulted for 13 just today.
