The home exudes an organic contemporary style with a Spanish flair, characterized by signature details like decorative tile stair rises and wrought-iron lighting. Built in 1977, the home retains its original charm with all-wood cathedral ceilings, tiled floors in most public rooms and in the primary suite, and naturally finished wood cabinetry topped with tile. Numerous fireplaces, each with tiled hearths, enhance the ambiance, complemented by adobe brick walls and hand-hewn ceiling beams. Expansive windows and sliding glass doors open to a spacious deck built around mature trees, offering views of the East Bay hills and the surrounding natural beauty of Portola Valley.

The formal dining room seamlessly connects to the kitchen and family room, creating a cohesive living space. The primary suite on the main level boasts rear deck access, significant wardrobe storage, and an entirely tiled en suite bath. The lower level features two additional bedrooms, a recreation room or possible bedroom, two full baths, plus a second family room or study with outside access and a fireplace.
