Property Description
The one you've been waiting for! This exceptional 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath residence boasts 3,642 sq ft of thoughtfully designed living space, where scale, sophistication, and versatility come together. Meticulously redesigned & extensively enhanced, the home reflects a discerning eye for detail, with elevated finishes & custom touches thoughtfully integrated throughout. A main-level bedroom and bath offer an elegant retreat for guests, extended family, or multi-generational living. The grand entrance immediately establishes the home’s sense of arrival, with a striking checkered Emperador marble foyer, graceful spiral staircase, and an iconic Restoration Hardware chandelier creating a dramatic first impression. Soaring ceilings and expansive floor-to-ceiling windows bring natural light into the formal living and dining spaces, balancing impressive scale with an inviting sense of warmth. At the heart of the home, the beautifully appointed chef’s kitchen is designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining, featuring an oversized island, generous breakfast nook, and seamless connection to the sophisticated family room. The reimagined primary suite culminates in a spa-inspired bath wrapped in dramatic stone, with a glass enclosed shower, free standing soaking tub, custom fluted double vanity and curated designer fixtures. A comprehensive designer renovation introduces brand-new hardwood flooring, extensively reimagined baths, custom vanities, statement lighting, natural stone and marble finishes & carefully curated fixtures throughout. Beyond the interiors, the outdoor space offers a serene escape, with mature trees, and a secluded flagstone patio creating an ideal setting for elegant entertaining, intimate gatherings, or quiet evenings. Upstairs, an expansive loft provides an exceptional extension of the living space, perfectly suited for a private office, media lounge, creative studio, playroom, or guest retreat. Every aspect of the residence has been thoughtfully considered to deliver both sophisticated entertaining and the flexibility of modern living. Ideally positioned near top rated Delaine Eastin Elementary, Accinelli Park and the Alameda Creek Trail, with trails extending toward Coyote Hills, the home offers an enviable connection to nature while maintaining convenient access to I-880, I-84, I-92, Union Landing, and major Bay Area tech hubs.
