This house is a rare find, on coveted Buena Vista Way, with other distinctive homes by the likes of Maybeck, John Hudson Thomas and Walter Radcliff. In the spirit of McCue's original vision and the bucolic setting, the current owners lifted this home to the next level of elegant simplicity while preserving its bones and providing for the needs of a modern family. With its 13’ ceilings, giant windows punctuating every room, jaw dropping SF bay views and one-level living--combined with excellent separation of space (2 offices) and living (family-media-exercise room, guest/children bedrooms)--this home is a true retreat. The exceptional quality and intelligent design choices, including serene yet practical landscaping, create seamless in-door out-door living that is minutes from UC Campus, Tilden, the Gourmet Ghetto shops. The perfect setting for comfortably living in the world today.
