Located on a generous size lot, the updated home remains a pristine example of Eichlers vision of boldness, change, and optimism offering superb indoor-outdoor living. Freshly painted inside and out, the home begins with a signature atrium that serves as a central outdoor living space, filling the adjacent interior spaces with natural light through sliding glass doors and windows on three sides. The main living areas have been reimagined to include a designer kitchen and great room in one airy open space, an adjoining living room with fireplace, and a formal dining room. The great room is sure to be a gathering hub with floor-to-ceiling window/doors showcasing a sparkling pool and spa that is graced with a privacy surround of foliage, flowers and trees. This 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home also enjoys Bay and City views along with the amenities of the Highlands community. Easy access to 280 and 92 down to 101.
