About This Home
As of August 2025Welcome to this beautifully renovated, one-level home in Burlingame Country Club. Located near the 18th golf green, this gem offers spectacular views of the lush fairways and a serene waterfall, creating an unparalleled living experience. Just a short walk to the club and its lovely facilities, where membership is optional, this home boasts three bedrooms (all ensuite), three and a half bathrooms, a private den perfect for an office, and a three-season sun room. The open, light-filled layout and high ceilings enhance the sense of space, while recent renovations include new bathrooms and an upgraded kitchen with newly installed appliances and custom-built storage solutions. The floor plan is stunning with a two-story tray ceiling living area and stone fireplace. Natural light floods the room, showing off the new hard wood floors throughout the house. The large master retreat has all the boxes checked, with tall ceilings, an oversized walk-in closet and a stunning master bathroom. A recent encapsulation, featuring a commercial dehumidifier and all-new insulation, ensures energy efficiency and comfort year-round. The expansive rear deck runs the full length of the home, ideal for outdoor entertainment, while the sun room provides a bright, protected spot to relax. Included with the property is the ownership of a one tenth portion of 1.9 acres across street, owned with neighbors to protect the street privacy (taxes and HOA fees are shared). The River Overlook road name is fitting for this home’s setting as you sit on the large rear deck enjoying the serenity of rushing water over the rocks below. Don’t miss the opportunity to make this dream home yours!
