Take an exclusive look at designer Breegan Jane’s complete home renovation in Southern California.
Growing up in Southern California, designer Breegan Jane had always envisioned owning a house on the beach. Now, that long-held dream is coming true.
Over the past year, Breegan has undertaken a full-scale renovation of her beach house, meticulously making every choice with both her designer’s insight and her family’s needs in mind.
“I have two growing boys, and I reached a point where I wanted to find the place that we would call home for as long as possible. This project is very close to my heart,” she shares.
Fans of Breegan’s shows on HGTV or Discovery+ know her passion for bringing attainable luxury and seamless indoor/outdoor living to her clients. For this personal project, Breegan is channeling that expertise into creating a dream home for her most important clients—her family.
Given Breegan and her two sons’ love for nature, her renovation goal was to design a luxurious yet functional living space where they could fully experience the sights and sounds of ocean waves crashing on the shore.
Fortunately, the home she bought boasted numerous windows. However, these windows had multiple issues: frosted glass that blocked the outdoor view, broken handles, and warped wood caused by the salty air, making some impossible to open. As a result, Breegan’s renovation plan put a strong emphasis on windows.
“Windows are critical to your home’s functionality. They’re also key to room layout, affecting your view, lighting, and connection to nature. You choose your neighborhood and land because they resonate with you and connect you to the wider community,” she explains.
For Breegan, that vital connection comes from the ocean. Living on the coast, she needed durable windows to withstand the harsh, salty air, yet she also desired aesthetically pleasing ones that aligned with the design of her forever home. That’s why she turned to Renewal by Andersen.
Choosing them was straightforward for her, having already partnered with Renewal by Andersen just two years earlier to replace patio doors in her previous home. She was impressed by how effortless the process was when a single company managed all aspects of the project, from sales and manufacturing to installation, service, and offering the Nation’s Best Warranty.
“I’ve always had an easy, hassle-free, wonderful experience with Renewal by Andersen’s Signature Service. The end results are stunning, and they handle everything for you. The simplified process is invaluable to both the everyday homeowner and me as a designer,” Breegan says.
This time, Breegan had the opportunity to see firsthand how Renewal by Andersen’s custom windows are crafted. In December, she donned her winter gear and visited the company’s one-million-square-foot manufacturing facility. The cold weather didn’t dampen her awe at the level of detail and teamwork that goes into each window.
“It was incredible to witness the quality, craftsmanship, and collective effort that goes into every homeowner’s project,” she recalls.
Renewal by Andersen of Central Florida, Jacksonville, and Tampa offers the same premier service and high-quality windows that Breegan experienced, ensuring that homeowners across these regions can create their dream homes with confidence. Whether you’re looking to enhance your view or improve your home’s durability, Renewal by Andersen has the solution for you.
