A private driveway leads through a gate to the end of a secluded cul-de-sac. Tranquility is one’s destination. Built in 2018, this practically new home occupies three levels, all under exceptional oak hardwoods. The main level captures the best of the exceptional views that the home offers. A living room, with one of the home’s three gas fireplaces, welcomes guests near the front door, with garden views. The family room sits to the west, with oversized windows looking out to the city and the Bay, elevated ceilings, another fireplace, and access to a spacious terrace ideal for relaxing on warm summer nights. Diners and guests may never want to leave the adjacent dining room (easily seating ten or more); the table sits under a distinctive custom chandelier, and the views are incomparable. Serving guests is easy in the spacious kitchen, with oversized marble countertops and an island, elite appliances, custom glass-enclosed cabinetry, an adjoining butler’s pantry and wet bar, and a breakfast nook for informal dining. The spacious principal suite sits above the main level, with a large walk-in closet, fireplace, custom cabinetry, marble counters, oversized shower, the first of two laundry facilities, double sinks, and a freestanding bathtub.

The three other bedrooms sit on the lower level, each under elevated ceilings with its own bathroom, ample closet space, and pastoral views. A media room, with a 74-inch television and adjoining bar (with Bosch dishwasher and wine refrigerator) will entertain guests, and a recreation room/home gym (which could be reconfigured as a sitting area), with oversized windows and more balcony access, links the bedrooms. This floor has its own laundry room, with top appliances. Morning coffee or evening relaxation is just as spectacular on the other side of the home, in the courtyard adjacent to the front door.

The home is wired for sound throughout. Some 26 solar panels, and a battery system with 9.8 kwh storage capacity, keep utility costs low. The 65 or so piles, sunk deep into the ground, assure stability. A sophisticated ADT security system, with alarms on every door and window and accompanying motion detectors, protects the premises.
