About This Home
As of March 2024Welcome to this Paul Greene-built gem, re-envisioned with contemporary elegance & mid-century flair inspired by architect Joseph Eichler. Spanning over 2,000 square feet, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath haven merges modernist architecture with the beauty of indoor-outdoor living. A gated entrance leads to an enclosed cedar atrium, showcasing the warmth of post and beam construction, clerestory windows, a smooth stucco exterior, high ceilings, and clean geometric lines. Inside, sophisticated slate floors extend through the common living spaces. The living room, with its cozy brick fireplace and extensive wall of windows and sliding doors, is flooded with natural light. The thoughtfully designed kitchen is equipped with a center island, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, & large pantry. Adjacent to it, an indoor-outdoor dining area offers the perfect setting for both entertaining and casual family meals.
The primary bedroom is a private retreat, offering views of the serene backyard, pool, and mountains. A spacious great room adjacent to the bedrooms, featuring expansive glass doors, opens to the enclosed atrium, further enhancing the indoor-outdoor flow. The second bathroom, with its dual vanities, marble floors, and walk-in shower, adds a touch of luxury.
Outside, a professionally designed Xeriscape oasis creates a tranquil environment with gravel pathways winding between mature succulents, palms, and stone planters. This leads to a terraced orchard of fruit trees and raised vegetable beds, set against the backdrop of a sparkling pool and stunning mountain vistas.
This property isn't just a home, it's a lifestyle encapsulating contemporary living, thoughtful design, and natural beauty all located in the coveted Foothill School District.
