About This Home

As of April 2021

Just blocks from vibrant downtown San Carlos, this thoroughly updated home also benefits from sweeping views across the Peninsula and out to the East Bay hills. Beautiful hardscape with integrated gardens and planters defines the front entrance, where keyless entry and a Ring doorbell add modern convenience. Vaulted and beamed ceilings expand the main living areas, which include a fireplace, sliding glass doors to the viewing deck, updated kitchen with breakfast bar, plus two built-in office areas perfect for today's needs. A lower-level family room with fireplace and bar provides added livability, opening to the private rear yard with a large spa and enchanting gardens. There are 4 bedrooms and 2 baths comprising a main-level primary suite with views and dual-access bath with adjacent bedroom plus 2 lower-level bedrooms, one with an outside entrance. Location, a flexible floor plan, and sparkling city lights at night - a rare option for Peninsula living.
