Oaks and other mature trees surround this compound, a private driveway removed from beautiful Orchard Road. The property is an easy 10-minute walk to Theater Square, with BART just beyond. Three buildings comprise the property. The main residence, nearly 2,000 sq ft alone, has 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, with hardwood floors and many new windows throughout. The principal suite has a spacious bedroom with a fireplace and a renovated bathroom. That bedroom’s French doors lead to a large wooden deck that...Oaks and other mature trees surround this compound, a private driveway removed from beautiful Orchard Road. The property is an easy 10-minute walk to Theater Square, with BART just beyond. Three buildings comprise the property. The main residence, nearly 2,000 sq ft alone, has 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, with hardwood floors and many new windows throughout. The principal suite has a spacious bedroom with a fireplace and a renovated bathroom. That bedroom’s French doors lead to a large wooden deck that welcomes the afternoon sun. After the sun sets, relax in the sunken spa, or enjoy a glass of wine with friends around the deck. The other bedrooms share a bath and terrace. The kitchen offers top appliances, distinctive countertops, and a spacious breakfast bar. The kitchen adjoins the principal dining area. It flows seamlessly into the 442 sq ft family/living room, featuring a wood-burning fireplace, garden views, and additional deck access. Two ancillary buildings complete the premises. The larger of the two is a fully equipped 800 sq ft guest house, which recently rented out for $3000/mo. Nearby is a 250 sq ft office/studio, perfect for study or working from home. A security system protects the premises, and a covered carport comfortably accommodates 2 vehicles.
