About This Home
As of November 2019The Ridgeview House is both magnificent and private.The homes architectural shape gracefully curves over the surrounding woods with glimpses of San Francisco Bay, but it is the stunning views of the Foothills Park Ridgeline that became its namesake. The 900 sf., two-story, Great Room is the core of the home. It is framed with 20 foot high, arched beam ceilings and an interior bridge that runs through the center, connecting the two upper wings. A chefs kitchen features custom walnut and rift-cut white oak details, honed soapstone counters, and industrial grade stainless steel appliances creating a space that is a true pleasure to cook in. The kitchen island is flanked by dark walnut butcher blocks and wine enthusiasts will be delighted to find a temperature controlled wine cellar and food storage larder just off the kitchen. Continuing out the side door is a beautifully landscaped backyard complete with an herb garden, fire pit and a high efficiency drip sprinkler system.
