The no expense spared renovation resonates in the 2 bed, 1.5 bath main home & detached 3rd bedroom/studio w/.5 bath. Exposed wood beams high above emphasize the rooms immense dimensions, & gorgeous maple floors continue along with the phenomenal composition of the home. When it is time to whip up something delicious, head to the kitchen, grab some freshly picked vegetables out of the fridge, heat up the Viking range or Bosch speed oven, & set some cutting boards out on the natural honed marble countertops. Relax at the end of the day with a soak in the hot tub, or playing with your kids & pets in the large yard space, or just enjoying the Bay & SF Views all from your own private sanctuary.
