This gracious Alameda Ridge home has all the style and character of the 1920's, modeled after the glamour of the Hollywood era. California/Mediterranean style features arched doorways, wrought-iron railings, Batchelder art-tile fireplace surround, leaded windows and hard stucco exterior. There's even a wisp of Art Deco. Four bedrooms comprise the second level, the smallest has built-ins that make it ideal for an office or nursery; another bedroom is big enough to be a bunkroom! And the third, also quite spacious, has a striking view of Irvington neighborhood treetops and glittering lights of downtown as does every southwest-facing window throughout. The primary bedroom has the same glorious view as well as its own gas fireplace. The primary bath has separate shower and tub plus a romantic little fountain and dimmable lights for a soothing soak after a long day. Besides many functional upgrades including most windows, tile pavers in the kitchen and throughout the lower level which has been fully finished in the style of the home. Lower level has a spacious family room with gas fireplace and built-ins, is plumbed for a kitchenette and has fantastic storage space. Fifth bedroom is a suite for guests or office. Be careful who you host though - it's adjacent to the wine cellar! Pull up the exterior photos to preview special gardens designed by Doug Macy in the '90s. Plantings feature flowering cherries, a big fig tree, wild roses, day lilies, hydrangeas and more. There's a private walled garden with two fountains and colorful flower pots. There's even a dedicated "potager" off the kitchen for herbs. The lower (south) side of the lot extends to NE 38th and is planted - though somewhat wild - with flowering trees including pink dogwoods. Above the treetops, there's a vast view of the Irvington neighborhood below and sparkling downtown lights in the distance. [Home Energy Score = 1.
