With nearly 3,000 sq ft across three levels, the home provides volume and architectural presence that is increasingly difficult to find this close to campus. The setting feels like a private treehouse, surrounded by mature redwoods and oaks. Several expansive decks extend off multiple levels, creating substantial outdoor living space set directly into the canopy. Inside, the framework is already compelling: exposed wood beams, generous ceiling height, and multiple skylights that pull light into the core of the home. The vertical configuration (with each floor serviced by an elevator) creates distinct zones that lend themselves to thoughtful redesign. The structure and character are in place. The next step is refinement and execution.  Given the proximity to campus, buyers may also explore the potential for multiple units - buyer to investigate feasibility subject to city approval. Properties this close to the university with this kind of scale offer multiple strategic pathways and are few and far between.
