FEATURES
Genteel living unfolds at this sophisticated, yet decidedly approachable and intimate home. Beyond the impressive curb appeal with gated entrance and gardens in a palette of white and green, impeccable details appear at every turn with richly stained oak floors throughout, dazzling designer lighting, and extraordinary millwork.
Three levels are intelligently arranged for comfortable everyday living with myriad possibilities for entertaining, work, and health and well-being. A sommelier-worthy wine cellar, quality cinema, sports bar, and one bedroom suite currently designed as a fitness center are just some of the many fine amenities. Seven bedroom suites plus a separate guest house offer sumptuous accommodations and ultimate flexibility for family, guests, and staff. Expanding the space and cleverly integrated into the design are numerous “secret” areas that enhance work, play, and storage needs.
Befitting a gorgeous home such as this, the impressive grounds of almost one acre are lushly planted with level lawns. A redwood forest is home to a custom treehouse complete with zip line, while a trampoline and sport court along with the pool and spa provide everything needed for recreational enjoyment. Offering timeless appeal, this home also benefits from a coveted West Atherton location with access to acclaimed Las Lomitas schools and within easy reach of Silicon Valley or San Francisco tech centers.
