This terrific Contemporary Mid-Century Modern home built in 1953 is conveniently located close to Forest Hill Station, Miraloma Shopping Center and West Portal Village! The lovely garden entrance with inviting walkway leads to a gracious arched portico with notable front door and into a wonderful foyer with coat closet and ideal center hall floor plan. The magnificent formal living room boasts a stunning gas fireplace with mantel, raised quartz hearth and hexagon-shaped tile surround, large picture windows, recessed lighting and exquisite hardwood floors. The classic formal dining room with sliding glass door to the walk-out patio is perfect for entertaining! The sumptuous remodeled kitchen with garden window showcases all GE stainless-steel appliances including an electric range, separate convection microwave, refrigerator and dishwasher, Carrara marble counters with waterfall edge, painted custom cabinets, menu planning desk and a light-filled breakfast area with views to the outdoors. A snazzy "vintage" tile powder room with ample storage ends this floor.
An attractive, wide staircase with a filtered glass window ascends to the upper level with spacious landing, linen closet and the home's private living quarters. The sensational master suite features two large wall to wall closets and a tastefully updated bath with quartz counters, tile floors and huge walk-in shower. Two additional gigantic bedrooms - one with built-in bookshelves and decorative balcony, both with good-size closets - and a delightful "Art-Deco" tile bath finish this floor.
The fabulous landscaped backyard with boxwood hedge, mature camellia tree, expansive patio and tradesman's entrance completes this truly special home!
