About This Home
As of February 2021Located on a private bluff in sought-after Broadway Terrace, 268 Taurus is a custom-built, Glen Jarvis-designed 4BD/5BA gorgeously landscaped Cape Cod beautifully conceived with spacious rooms and elegant finishes. No expense has been spared on the creation of a classic and comfortable oasis with exteriors inspired by the stately homes of New England and interiors that represent the best in California architecture and living. Thoughtful design integrity is reflected in hardwood floors and crown moldings, while vaulted ceilings, expansive windows, and multi-level balconies provide an exceptional indoor/outdoor flow with sweeping views of the SF city skyline and the Bay and Golden Gate Bridges. A fantastic detached structure houses a guest/au pair suite or brilliant home office with full bath above a two-car garage with abundant elevated storage spaces. The home is the best of both worlds, situated in the privacy of the hills, yet not far from the amenities of Montclair Village.
