About This Home

As of August 2025

Designed in 1963 by acclaimed architects Campbell and Wong, 7145 View Ave is a striking mid-century modern that channels Palm Springs style. Set on a generous 10,890 sq ft cul-de-sac lot, this 2,967 sq ft home captures Bay and bridge views through walls of glass. All the living space is on one level, with 5 beds, 3 baths, radiant-heated cork and tile floors, and a layout ideal for both daily living and entertaining. Clerestory windows extend the height of the rooms and increase the light. Interior courtyards and lush outdoor spaces, sheltered from the wind, invite year-round enjoyment. At the center, a solar-heated large lap pool flows directly off the living, dining, kitchen and family room areas as well as the primary bedroom, creating a true indoor-outdoor resort feel. The oversized two-car garage offers abundant storage and an EV charger. Lovingly maintained since 1996, with upgrades including solar power, updated kitchen and bathrooms, this rare architectural property is minutes from hiking, parks, and BART—offering style, comfort, and connection in one stunning package.
