"Situated on a peaceful cul-de-sac of custom-designed homes, w/a trailhead to Claremont Canyon, this thoughtfully designed & well-maintained home is flooded with natural light. Beautifully integrated into the level lot with a rare front lawn and private garden, it feels like living in a retreat somewhere on the Mediterranean coast. From every room, through the numerous windows & doors, one looks out onto beautiful verdant and blooming vistas, over tiled roofs to Claremont Cnyn, to the Bay, to the G.G.Bridge, to the Redwood grove. The floor plan & circulation hits a balance of space & intimacy w/a flexible layout, friendly for families or couples w/offices & private space for visitors. It has all the bells & whistles, from high-end appliances to walk-in closets, to an awning-covered heated balcony. Great indoor-outdoor flow. Beautiful stairway winds up through a dramatic double volume space topped by a large skylight & feels like a stairway to the stars. Serenity & beautify abound.
