Remarks

This distinctive home rests on a .67-acre lot in the heart of Upper Happy Valley. Entertain guests before dinner in the spacious living room (with a wood-burning fireplace) just off the grand entry foyer, or in the 399-sq-ft family room (under a 14-ft ceiling, with another wood fireplace and garden views on 3 sides) just down the hall. Newly refinished Tasmanian oak hardwoods link the living areas. The kitchen features a Jerusalem limestone island and counters, a Viking range, and a breakfast nook. Ample cabinetry and a walk-in pantry supply ample storage space. The principal suite and another bedroom are downstairs, each with garden views and a bathroom. The principal suite offers a spacious walk-in closet with built-in shelving and hanging space. The en-suite bath features dual sinks, a spa tub, and a large walk-in shower. Three other bedrooms and 2 bathrooms are upstairs, along with a 288-sq-ft media/play room, and closet space galore. Work from home is a pleasure in the office just off the entry foyer. The back yard is surrounded by redwoods, a striking Marina strawberry tree, and manicured gardens. It offers a 41-foot swimming pool, ample deck space, a hot tub, and a grassy play area. A driveway and 3-car garage provide ample parking.
