It features Brazilian cherry floors throughout, two wood burning fireplaces and a cherry paneled library. You enter through two, eight foot high, cherry front doors into the marble tile entry. The kitchen is a chef’s delight, featuring granite countertops, marble backsplash, a 6 burner Wolf stove plus griddle and grill and two ovens for preparing gourmet dinners. A large granite island provides plenty of work space for two chefs working together to cook up a feast. This large granite island has been the focal point of all our parties for the last 30 years. Two dishwashers make it easy to clean up after a party.
Tall windows in the dining room and living room allow everyone to enjoy the panoramic view. Step down three steps into the living room and enjoy a fire in the marble fireplace.
The master bedroom and bath feature unparalleled views and one wakes up to a peaceful view whether the Bay and Alcatraz are completely covered in fog, rain or overcast. Typically, the overcast burns up to open clear skies by 11 am or so, depends on your luck for the day. Enjoy morning coffee, brunch or evening cocktails sitting on one of our two decks overlooking the SF Bay and watch sailboats & ship traffic through the bay. One can simply sit there with a partner and share memories of the past and talk about making new ones.
This beautiful home has French doors leading from the master bedroom and library onto the top deck and from the kitchen on to the deck at entry level.
