Located at the top of the hill, with northeast downtown and bay views from the front rooms and southwest Twin Peaks views from the back, this 3-level major renovation includes a new horizontal addition and significantly altered floor plan from the original 1960 flats.Â
The current property configuration consists of a modern and open floor plan 3 bedroom/3.5 bath main residence, with high ceilings and clean lines, occupying the top 2-levels. In addition there is a ground level spacious legal junior one bedroom apartment that opens to the private rear garden, plus a 2-car side/side garage.
The spacious tiled entry features glass railing and hardwood floating stairs with skylight overhead. There is interior access to both the ground level garden studio/guest quarters or media center as well as the double garage.
The top floor of the main house has 10 foot ceilings with 6 skylights and features an open floor plan and gallery hallway. Downtown and Bay Bridge views from the front combination living/dining room set the tone for home entertaining. The fireplace wall has built-in wiring for an entertainment center and there are overhead surround sound speakers for AV systems. A built-in wet bar serves the dining area.Â
The sun drenched, spacious kitchen and adjoining family room open to an expansive rear terrace and enjoy southwestern views. A geometric paneled wall in the family room is wired for big screen TV. In the kitchen, sleek custom Domicile cabinetry floats over the white Silstone counters over lit by a large skylight, recessed and designer lighting.
