Remarks

Set back from the street on a sun-drenched 10,000+ sq ft lot (per public record) & nestled among redwood trees, 7981 Terrace is truly an exceptional property. Architect-designed & built in 2017, this mid-century modern influenced home offers 4 beds, 3.5 baths, and attached 1-bed/1-bath ADU. Step inside & your eyes are drawn straight through glass double doors to the breathtaking backyard & the elegant stairway to the second level. The main floor features a luxurious primary bedroom w/en-suite bath, 2 additional beds & full bath and polished concrete floors. Ascend the stairway & be delighted by the open floor plan & many windows. The gourmet kitchen boasts beautiful quartzite counters & abundant space for any chef. The living room centers around a Rais wood-burning fireplace, while a covered deck w/built-in gas BBQ beckons for indoor-outdoor entertaining. An additional flexible room serves perfectly as a bedroom or office, plus a convenient half bath. The level, park-like backyard must be seen to be believed—offering endless possibilities for hide & seek, gardening, & relaxation. 2 outbuildings, one w/a full bath, provide versatile bonus space. The 1-bed/1-bath ADU mirrors the sophistication of the main house & can be rented for income or connected to the main house. A must see!
