862 Chiltern Rd, Hillsborough, CA 94010

Extraordinary gardens and complete privacy create one of South Hillsborough's most exceptional residences. This circa 1931 Spanish Hacienda home presents a compelling blend of enduring architecture and recently completed updates. Surrounding this gated estate are approximately 2.55 acres of park-like grounds with a separate guest home, cabana, pool, spa and sports court. Signature details of the era remain beautifully intact, from vaulted ceilings, Gothic arched doorways, and all-wood beamed ceilings. Recent improvements introduce a fresh aesthetic, including a remodeled designer kitchen and service area, updated lighting, and refinished hardwood floors. The home balances impressive scale with comfortable livability through a collection of elegant formal rooms, a dedicated office, a tremendous kitchen and family room combination, and lower-level spaces for fitness and staff accommodations. The 5 bedrooms and 5.5 baths in the main residence are complemented by a detached one bedroom guest house plus a pool cabana, while the grounds unfold with meandering pathways, mature trees, and abundant privacy. Bay views from the primary suite add another dimension to this distinguished Hillsborough estate.
