A Walk Through the Residence…

An understated façade and stamped concrete entryway provide an interesting contrast to the dramatic light filled interior. The front door opens to reveal broad windows crowning an inviting stairway that descends into the fabulous open great room.

To the left, a well-appointed, completely remodeled kitchen lies waiting for the enthusiastic gourmet. Abundant custom cabinetry with self guided pullout function, fire blasted granite countertops and stainless steel Viking appliances serve practical purposes with distinction, while tasteful pendant lighting and beautiful City views develop magnificent aesthetics for casual dining at the peninsula breakfast bar.

Fluid movement from the kitchen to the adjoining living room and large redwood deck creates a fabulous social atmosphere for festive entertaining. Expansive windows draw the outdoors in, providing a lovely backdrop for intimate conversation around the gorgeous travertine fireplace. En route to the elegant dining area, discover a sleek wet bar with glass front cabinetry, temperature controlled wine storage and a stainless refrigerator and sink. Focused and recessed lighting highlights favorite artistic displays in both the living and dining areas, further developing an air of sophistication in these compelling gathering areas. Adding to the luxury, a full wine cellar with over 400 bottle capacity lies just beyond.

Slate floor tile leads down the hallway to a private bedroom and accompanying bath. With versatile potential to function as a guest room or home office, this light and bright room is highlighted by French doors opening to the lovely outdoor gardens. The stylish bath features fire blasted granite countertop, a rich mahogany stained console, glass enclosed shower with a rain showerhead, beautiful mosaic and porcelain tile and a built in towel warmer.
