About This Home
Whoever said “the best views of San Francisco are from Oakland” had this home in mind. It looks across the Bay at the City, Golden Gate, Bay Bridge and Mt. Tam. The kitchen, dining area and living room all look out through 10-ft floor-to-ceiling windows and sliders. The deck is an entertainment hub (with an elite speaker system) for gatherings large and small. The open-concept kitchen has every amenity, including a La Cornue range, Gaggenau steam oven, custom cabinetry, Neolith counters and an island (with seating for 3 at a breakfast bar). A spacious pantry and wine cellar sit adjacent. The Duchateau flooring throughout looks like new. The home offers 4 BRs and 4-1/2 BAs. The bedroom on the lower level is ideal for guests. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms with private baths. The principal suite has unobstructed views of the Bay (as does the adjoining bedroom). Its bath has an oversized rain shower, heated towel racks, soaking tub and dual sinks, all under skylights. Family and friends will gather in the spacious living room, warmed by an oversized fireplace and radiant heating. A well-appointed office on the main floor makes work from home a pleasure. The home also offers a spacious and peaceful garden, 20 solar panels and a car-charging station in the garage.
