About This Home
As of August 2021Sweeping, majestic views of the Golden Gate and Angel Island are a highlight of this dramatic 4 level open plan Mid-Century Modern, designed by award-winning architect, David Burton, and lovingly built by the Seller in 1962. Vaulted ceilings, copper fireplace & copper skylights, exposed beams, extensive use of wood & a large structural core pillar rising from the ground level to the roof, are superb examples of Mid-Century design, created by those who believed the forward-looking style could be a vehicle for social change & a better society. This 2 bedrm/2 bath home is characterized by flat planes, large windows & open space. Integrated with nature, you are invited out to the deck to enjoy the Sunset of SF Bay & to relax in the secluded brick patio garden. The Lower Level is undeveloped space of great potential, with an extra bathroom, open space, cabinetry, storage & French doors to the garden. Parking for 5 cars, 2 in carport, is a bonus. Absolute best value for a Bay View home!
