Description

A striking expression of Mid-Century Modern design, this architecturally crafted residence was extensively rebuilt and expanded in 2010, creating 2,547 square feet of sophisticated, highly functional living space on an expansive 12,750 Square Foot lot. Beyond the private front courtyard, a cedar-lined entry, tranquil fountain and sculptural dry riverbed introduce a home where natural materials and thoughtful design take center stage. Inside, soaring ceilings and walls of custom wood-framed windows fill the interiors with natural light. The dramatic living room rises beneath a 14-foot cedar ceiling and features a clay-finished fireplace, natural stone flooring and beautifully integrated cabinetry. At the heart of the home, the chef’s kitchen pairs custom Berkeley Mills bamboo cabinetry with natural limestone and distinctive French Pyrolave countertops, complemented by European appliances, a Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer, wine cooler, generous island seating and an adjoining walk-in pantry. Three bedrooms and three baths include a serene primary suite with vaulted ceilings, heated bathroom floors, an oversized accessible shower, extensive built-in storage and an exceptionally spacious custom walk-in closet. A dedicated office, versatile guest room with a built-in desk and concealed bed, and an impressively appointed laundry room add effortless practicality. Outdoors, multiple patios create inviting spaces for dining and conversation, while the generous backyard offers a bocce court, garden beds, mature avocado and apple trees, and ample room to envision a future pool. Solar power, zoned heating and air conditioning, two tankless water heaters, fiber-cement siding, low-VOC finishes, native landscaping and rainwater infiltration gardens reflect a deep commitment to sustainability. Distinctive, enduring and designed for modern California living, this is a home where architectural beauty and environmental consciousness exist in perfect harmony.
